[NBLUG/talk] Ubuntu 10.04 services failing to start

[M Poole]

The only thing I've been losing hair over is sound and flash.

I don't know what I did to lose flash. Some bug some where required some
change that now, left me with a no op situation no matter which direction I
turn. I've tried to rebuild with wrapper withoutwrapper etc. closest I get
is old beta 64 bit flash but no sound.

Sound is that I am struggling to get ALSA to play with my USB audio
interface to my ham radio and it just isn't helping much. I'd like to get
soundmodem working as well as basic things like fldigi. I can get fldigi to
play in OSS but that's not really a best of all worlds solution.

Anyway climb the hills fall down the other side, that's linux.
