You missed installing modules when you compiled your kernel:  Issue "make 
modules_install" after building the kernel.  Check the makefile though, to be 
sure they will go to the proper lib/modules/2.6.32.3-m directory of your 
rootfs.  The makefile target will create the proper 2.6.32.3-m directory, you 
just need to point it to your ARM rootfs on your ubuntu host.
