When you look at the actual problem, climate change really is a viable

Ben/John:

A suggestion: consider the kernel to be the climate that changed and caused
severe flooding of the video chip's driver. If the ubuntus allow you to
select packages to exclude from automatic upgrading put all the kernel
packages in that list.

If your older hardware runs everything you need without issue there's no
reason to upgrade the kernel unless it's to fix a security vulnerability.
Kernel upgrades generally add support for the latest hardware which provide
no benefits to out older systems.

HTH,

Rich
