[Trisquel-users] Re : Is it possible to apply Ubuntu's LTS Enablement Stack upgrades in Trisquel 8?

I certainly do not recommend installing packages directly taken from Ubuntu's  
repository.  But I think ivanruvalcaba is installing packages in Trisquel's  
repository.  In the case of X stack's update, the packages in Trisquel 8's  
repository should be the same as those in Ubuntu 16.04's (the version numbers  
not including "trisquel").

Haven't you seize the occasion to update Abrowser to version 62?  If so,  
version 62 (and not Xorg's update) may have solved the rendering issue.   
Abrowser 62 entered Trisquel's repository this morning, maybe yesterday.

Since the packages linux-*-hwe-8.0 all have their version numbers ending with  
"trisquel4", I believe there should be no such problem.  If there is, then it  
is a critical issue to file: Trisquel's repository should never propose  
proprietary software.

The package named "trisquel" is not essential at all.  It is a metapackage.   
See  
https://trisquel.info/forum/eli5-why-pidgin-preinstalled-trisquel-and-gnunet-uses-mainly-pidgin-communicating#comment-132371  
for an explanation.


So, well, just install the package "xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04" and, please, tell  
us if that solves Abrowser's rendering glitches: many users face that  
problem, apparently.
