I've upgraded my LTS version of Ubuntu to Ubuntu 17.04 and from the day I've upgraded I've been struggling to get this thing stable. Sometimes my Wifi adapter doesn't work properly and sometimes I can't even copy things properly.  So I want to revert back to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.  Is there any way to get this done?

I'm considering to upgrade my PC to Ubuntu v17.10, but I'm afraid because there's a BIOS issue has been confirmed for several different lines of Lenovo laptops also the reports of it affecting a few Acer, Toshiba and Dell laptops.  Should I upgrade or not? Also I can't download the Latest Ubuntu 17.10 ISO, the official website download link is currently discouraged.

While upgrading from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS, every process got done like Getting new packages, Installing upgrades, the last process  was Cleaning. Now, my PC is running fine on 16.04 but while turning it on and shutting it down, it is showing to clean and giving errors. Due to electricity problem, cleaning process while upgrading didn't went well.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and although I would like to upgrade to 14.04 LTS, I don't want to have any troubles after upgrading. For example, I don't know if I can no longer use some of my software and have to reinstall it.  I'm also worry if my computer have the system requirements necessary to 14.04 LTS version.  That's why I'm asking if it is necessary to upgrade, I mean, will be any problem if I skip the upgrade? Can I stand in 12.04 LTS forever?

Question is about Ubuntu release process. Are migrations from n to n+1 releases expected?  Assuming we have server with installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Will it be smoothly upgradable to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS via apt-get upgrade ?  Assumptions:   scope is software therefore we assume that given hardware is supported on both releases (upgrading from and to) that's why, always before upgrade you are asked to make backup to be able to revert in case of failure

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Today when I logged into my computer I got an update alert saying that I could upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. The other options were not now or do not upgrade. If I chose to upgrade will it delete my /home directories and the installed software under /opt and /usr/local ?

Currently I'm running Linux-3.0 and I want to update it to Linux-3.3.1 the latest stable kernel release as mentioned at . Can I update to 3.3.1 in Ubuntu without any risk of crashes? I'm updating my kernel regularly as provided by the Update Manager..Currently I have Linux-3.0.0.17..Can I update?  NOTE:  The latest kernel version any user is supposed to use in Ubuntu is updated automatically via the Update Manager, so no action is normally required by user regarding kernel upgrades. What the question author is referring to is mainline kernel, see:

Does anyone know the (specific) reasons that it is recommended that old LTS server users wait until the point release to upgrade?  Is it just a matter of bug fixes and waiting for improved stability for production servers, or is there something more fundamental than that?

I just did a do-release-upgrade going from Ubuntu 16.04 to 17.04. However, now when I login via SSH I have the following message   Welcome to Ubuntu 17.04 (GNU/Linux 4.10.0-20-generic x86_64)   * Documentation:  https://help.ubuntu.com  * Management:     https://landscape.canonical.com  * Support:        https://ubuntu.com/advantage  Ubuntu 12.04 LTS end-of-life was April 28, 2017 -- Upgrade your Precise systems!  $ sudo do-release-upgrade -m server  0 packages can be updated. 0 updates are security updates.   My question is, how can I remove the   Ubuntu 12.04 LTS end-of-life was April 28, 2017 -- Upgrade your Precise systems!  $ sudo do-release-upgrade -m server   it wasn't there prior the release-upgrade  I checked and I am on Zesty  lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.

My question is more, is there a reason why this appears after a release-upgrade? Is this message something generic not taking into consideration the current version of Ubuntu? Or maybe my system is not updated properly?

I have been trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 but when I try   do-release-upgrade -c   I get this output  Checking for a new Ubuntu release No new release found.   I have checked the release date to be 26th April but still, I didn't get any update...   I am a little new to Linux, so pardon me if I am mistaken on any point.

The latest xorg update was a big regression for me on a dual display setup. Is there a simple way to revert to the previous version?  I'm on Lucid Lynx.

Since there are major differences between Lubuntu 18.04 LTS and Lubuntu 18.10 primarily involving the change from LXDE to LXQt is there any guidance available for those who wish to upgrade from 18.04 LTS to 18.10, as opposed to performing a clean installtion of 18.10?

Anyway....there is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and the normal 12.10 version. Is that the same with Lubuntu? On their site, for some reason, they seem to be promoting the 12.10 version while for me an LTS is always more appealing. I am wondering if they have the same ideology as the Ubuntu team.  UPDATE: Is it okay to talk about Lubuntu here at all? I understand that it is a flavour of Ubuntu...but still. Are they 2 very different teams?

So here is my story...  I was doing upgrades to ubuntu the other day, and the power went out right in the middle of the upgrade, so now when I try to do upgrades it keeps asking me if I want to do a partial upgrade. I have heard this is bad and should be avoided, I also know there is a way to fix this via the command line, but I can't remember how, nor can I find anything on the internet.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
