Here is how i fixed mine,
my problems, after upgrading to 9.10, these things stopped working
Radeon x1600 drivers not loaded
SB X-Fi drivers not loaded
Compiz not working
new 9.10 kernel was not loaded
before you do anything first take a look if your system is using the new 9.10 (2.6.31) kernel, because the system will use the old kernel and label your system as karmic
When i upgraded i kept the old menu.lst, this prevented the new kernel from loading
if the kernel is using the old version, go to synaptic and download grub-pc
install it, then run it, reboot, this should load the new kernel,
after the new kernel was loaded, everything worked perfect, i just have ot turn on Visual Effects to get the Compiz working again,
even my SB X-Fi that did not have a driver in old kernel, started working perfectly,
Awesome!!
