Well, the way LTS generally works is "if it worked before, it'll keep working, but you get security/etc updates". It didn't work for you before, so that strategy won't work too well for you. > > If that is the only choice, I can try to figure it out, but it would be far > better if Ubuntu provided updates via the usual distribution path, at least > IMHO. > > Alternately, if you can point me at a good sent of instructions for how to > do this, you could save me some time. I'm not particularly knowledgeable on Ubuntu. "oibaf ppa" is something I've heard said in connection to Ubuntu and easier availability of pre-packaged mesa. A quick search turns up https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers which makes claims about supporting Ubuntu 14.04. Hope this helps.
