Thanks Wayne.  I have been using various Linux Distros for more than a
decade now and 11.04 reminds me of the drama that we used to have to go
through with the early stuff of whatever distro.  I feel that these files
have somehow become corrupted and I wonder if the code writers couldn't
correct this by an update.  I tried the compile route and finished up having
to re-install 11.04 because I even lost the ethernet wired connection,  So I
am a bit careful of fiddling with the kernel.
