Notes
TI card reader
Fix on Edgy:
sudo gedit /etc/modules
Add these lines:
tifm_core tifm_7xx1 tifm_sd
Soundcard
sometimes you boot and it won't have any sound at all until the next boot (might take a few to bring it back) Sound works fine on Feisty
Fix (or workaround) which works on Edgy (someone please test on Dapper)
sudo gedit /etc/modules
Add this:
options snd-hda-intel model=m2-2
Wired internet
The driver's not very good and dies at high throughput, but there's no fix for it. All you can do when it happens is
sudo rmmod sky2 sudo modprobe sky2
