I decided to try the upgrade to 12.04LTS just for kicks.  It didn't go well.

For what it's worth, the last few times I've tried to upgrade Ubuntu, I've
had similar frustrations, ranging from being unable to print to being
unable to boot without a rescue disc.  A few months ago, I finally gave up
and installed CentOS 6 instead.  Admittedly it has older versions of many
packages and doesn't update very quickly, but I've had far fewer headaches
since switching.
