External Email - Use Caution        

Hello Antonin,
I’ve found a few posts that seem to indicate you can upgrade as well as 
downgrade the kernel (and its dependent packages) by editing the 
/etc/apt/sources.list to point to the Ubuntu distribution you want (and then 
running update, upgrade, dist-upgrade commands)..   Not sure what the 
previous Ubuntu distribution name was for you, but this 
post, https://sypalo.com/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu, lists the distributions as,
18.04 - bionic
18.10 - cosmic
19.04 - disco
19.10 - eoan
20.04 - focal
20.10 - groovy
While that post gives the example of *upgrading*, this post gives the example 
of 
*downgrading*, https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-downgrade-ubuntu-linux-system-to-its-previous-version,
 but I think they are essentially doing the same thing, i.e. it’s a function of 
the distribution name listed in /etc/apt/sources.list.
Note that even if you are downgrading the kernel, as far as the apt package 
manager is concerned you still have to run the various “upgrade” commands to 
change the distribution to a different one even if it is older.

       Dear experts,I use to have a 
perfectly working freesurfer installation on my Ubuntu18.04 LTS machine, until 
that doomsday where I installed updates asrecommended by ubuntu itself.Now, 
each time I run freeview, I get the following error:Aborted (core dumped)I 
reinstalled freesurfer from scratch, fixing nothing.I think Ubuntu did a kernel 
upgrade; now I have a uname -r output =5.4.0-52-genericI think it used to be 49 
instead of 52 before the upgrade, but I am notsure.Do you know of any patch 
fixing this, by any chance?Thanks for your lightsAntonin RovaiHôpital Erasme -
