In most cases LTS distro does not solve hardware compatibility problem at all - you still get old drivers even if the release is still supported. The only difference is how long bug fixes (for this outdated software) are released. So, generally it is good idea, but it will not solve this particular problem. This is why we have this ticket: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1919 See discussion there for details. - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
