Well, first this is a Ubuntu list, not Debian. Therefore I don't know if 
it is helpful to reference a thread on the Debian list. And from one of 
the posts in that thread it looks like the problem is solved already:

Maybe you could explain here what the problem is in relation to Ubuntu? 
Probably I didn't read that thread carefully enough to see what it is. 
And BTW: The procedure to compile a kernel for Ubuntu is explained here:
