My question: Must we following the release each time it just comes out, to use latest application and drivers. Firstly I use Ubuntu on an old laptop and happy with it. I understand new release is better suitable for better HW, RAM etc; secondly on Ubuntu 11.10, 12.04, 12.10 there were issues I have spent a long time to fix for ATI driver, for internet connection etc. the speed result is still not better compared to 11.04.
No, I am not looking for any fix. I just want to know: I like to use latest graphic driver ATI on the desktop PC, can I stick with Ubuntu 11.04? How can I upgrade application security without moving up from the stable 11.04 Ubuntu system?
