did your microphone work in 10.04 ? i usually suggest trying live cd's
before installing, especially when leaving an LTS release, but maybe there
is something you need in 10.10 , and it totally *should work* in 10.10. have
you looked at alsamixer? maybe the microphone is just turned all the way
down?.. the other issues sound like flash issues to me (you are running
64bit right?)... are you up to date with system updates? i am running a
64bit 10.04 install on my studio box, but i dont use flash. i would say if i
needed a professional production box and *had* to use flash apps, i would
run a 32bit install of 10.04... im not suggesting you need to wipe the box
and go back, but i think it would be worth looking at a live CD (32bit
10.04) and trying to get the flash app your having trouble with running, and
check the mic...
