Hi.  I found some other information that I posted to another Ubuntu
site.  One of the error messages I did get (and I didn't get it most of
the time) was: FATAL: binfmt_misc not found.  I dug into the kernel I
was building, and found that I had this built as a module.  The kernels
I built did exactly the same thing as stock IBEX kernels: after adding
various pieces of software from official Ubuntu sources (via apt-get),
and a reboot, my system would not be able to connect to the internet,
and my X server would not start "Screens unusable".  My only real
solution was to rebuild the kernel with binfmt_misc compiled into the
kernel (not built as a module).  I did, and have not experienced the
problem since.  I don't know exactly why, but that is the solution.  I
have built several kernels with the same build file (with miscellaneous
binary formats built in, instead of as a module) and have not had
problems since.  I haven't tried building new kernels with binfmt_misc
as a module.  It might be worthwhile to see if new kernels would cause
the same problem, or if its been fixed.  My system: Corei7/920 with X58
chipset, 12GB 1066/DDR3 memory, Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT.  Its on an Asus
P6T deluxe motherboard: Intel X58 Nehalem Core i7 QPI 6.4GT/s Tri-
Channel DDR3 1600 LGA1366 ATX Motherboard w/ SLi / CrossfireX 3x PCI-
Express 2.0 x16, Audio, GB LAN, SATA 3G/II, eSATA, SAS, RAID, USB 2.0,
Firewire, ExpressGate.  The GB lan is two Marvell Yukon gigabit ports (I
only use one).
