6 CraigBox 1 !! My Davicom (tulip) network card isn't working
2 There is [a recorded problem with the tulip driver|http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/48287] in the kernel shipped with Ubuntu 6.06. The 'tulip' driver claims the card, but it should be assigned to the 'dmfe' driver.

6 CraigBox 4 This problem was fixed in the package for 2.6.15-24.40, and the latest kernel from dapper-security should no longer have this bug.

26 !! Firefox Sound isn't working
27 Ubuntu [lists a bug|https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/29760] with flash and firefox, which causes firefox to crash when using the esd audio sink. Ubuntu's fix is to disable sound.
28 You can use alsa instead:
29 <verbatim>
30 apt-get install alsa-oss
31 </verbatim>
32 Edit the file ''<tt>/etc/firefox/firefoxrc</tt>'' and replace the line
33 <verbatim>
34 FIREFOX_DSP="none"
35 </verbatim>
36 with
37 <verbatim>
38 FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"
