This error happens when I am trying to start autorunning scripts from a
removable media drive.  It can be any script that's named autorun.sh.
For instance, on my backup drive I had an rsync script that I wanted to
autorun.  So, I named it autorun.sh.  As planned the dialog box asking
if I wanted to run the script comes up, however, when I choose run, it
comes back with an exec format error.  However, if I run this script say
in the command line it works fine.  I have autoran the exact same script
in previous versions of Ubuntu fine.  When their dialog boxes come up
asking if I want to run it, I click run and it works.
