Yes, but not directly.

To go from 8.04 to 10.04 will take a while to do that way, though, and you'll be downloading maybe 1.5Gb of files along the way. If the GUI upgrader lets you go straight to 10.04, I'd say it can probably be trusted. I've not seen it botch an upgrade. Wade. Q:Is it proper to eat cheeseburgers with your fingers?

I, too, have one of the aforementioned nvidia chipset cards and it blew up the display manager, so I did a fresh install to 10. I don't have alot of customization that I don't mind redoing. All my data is stored on other drives and I do keep windows partition to use tversity...since mediatomb isn't all the way there yet for streaming to ps3 (its getting better...but transcoding on the fly makes it much easier with tversity) Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.

Also had backups, etc. As I said, I didn't mind too much starting fresh...and I like 10. Seems to be working well.
