I'm having the same issue that Matt was. in X I get a terminal that
pops up and goes away, at a regular cmd line I just get the error. not
being able to use menuconfig is a problem.

Maxim, thank you very much for your response!

I exited X into the console, but when I bitbake, I get the error "Failed to
parse arguments: Cannot open display: ".  While I would be ok if someone would
enable the AU0828 module for 2.6.32 in the feeds, I'd like to be able to get to
the root of the problem, as I doubt i'm unique in having this issue (and
solving it would help me learn).
