I*think* the CMOS failure is a red herring, it still worked after replacing the CMOS battery with kernel 2.6.32 or older, it's just the later kernels that don't work.
But presumably it was able to run the later kernel before the CMOS battery went flat as it had a later kernel installed ?
AFAIK xubuntu doesn't change kernel versions except when there is a new release..you only get security updates to the release kernel. So unless you did a dist upgrade and never rebooted and then let the CMOS battery go flat I'd suggest that the CMOS failure *isn't* a red herring.
Or did I lose track of what was happening somewhere ?
