To answer your II question first -Yes you can use these repository
DVD's of 8.10 on 8.04 - when synaptic (or your package tool of choice)
sees these DVD's it will ask you if you want to upgrade and you can
choose to do an entire upgrade (advisable) or a selective package by
package upgrade (troublesome)

However what ever your H/W issues are with 8.10 will i think begin to
appear with 8.04 upgraded via DVD's
