=== Audacity hard locks system in 1.3 ===
I'm not quite sure what's happening here since the box completely locks up.
I launch Audacity from the menu, get about 2 seconds of CPU and disk activity, and then lock up. This requires a hard reset to recover. (No keyboard light activity, no mouse, hard drive activity stops)

=== Firefox silently fails in 1.3 ===
Trying to run Firefox silently fails. Upon trying to launch Firefox I see ~1/2 second of CPU activity and then nothing. Same symptoms whether from menu or cmd line.
I am guessing that this is also why the printer configuration menu item silently fails. (using links2 to http://localhost:631 does work)

=== Printing problems in 1.3 ===
rc.cupsd has 2 lines that refer to loading the parport/lp modules, but they do not get loaded.
Loading them by hand via modprobe seems to work fine, at least the printer initializes. However, the only print spooler I can find is cups-lpd, which wants to run from (x)inetd, which doesn't seem to exist. Trying to run cups-lpd& will cause it to suspend.

=== Reclaimable space in 1.3 (very very minor issue) ===
I noticed some man pages that don't have corresponding programs. (examples: lpadmin, lpdomatic)
It's probably not that much space (a meg or so maybe), but might add up to enough to allow another/newer/larger package on the cd.
It saves a few more meg (quick test says about 7.5) to gzip the man pages and have man as a script that gunzips and passes the result to the original man command.

=== The Dynebolic console forgets settings ===
When I boot on Dynebolic I need to select my favorite laguage in the Getting Started tab of the Dynebolic console. The problem is that when I open this console another time, then it kinda forgets the language settings I fixed the time before.
