No audio or touch pad in 9.10

[Tim]

Hi,
   I had a great working system (9.04), until I upgraded to 9.10. What distaster!! 9.10 doesn't recognise my sound hardware at all or the touch pad. These are very basic items that should not have been affected by the upgrade. How did you mess this up so badly?
   Now I need to know how to roll my system back to 9.04. My email is <email address hidden>.

Looking forward to your reply.

Sincerely,
Tim Lass
