That problem is related to 2.6.22 kernel.
In order to run ePSXe on Gutsy Gibbon you will have to compile and install newer kernel.

Here is how to do that (I used the latest stable kernel 2.6.23.1):
Open Terminal and enter:
Code:
sudo passwd root
su

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2

cd /usr/src
wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.23.1.tar.bz2

sudo tar xjf linux-2.6.23.1.tar.bz2
sudo ln -s linux-2.6.23.1 linux-2.6.23.1
cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.23.1

cp /boot/config-`uname -r` ./.config

make menuconfig
In kernel config menu go to "Load an Alternate Configuration File" and enter .config.
Go to Processor type and features, select Processor Family and choose the one you have.
When you are done just save and exit.

Now enter this:
Code:
make-kpkg clean
fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers

cd /usr/src
ls -l
Now go to /usr/src and run these packages:
linux-image-2.6.18.1-custom_2.6.23.1-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb
linux-headers-2.6.18.1-custom_2.6.23.1-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb

And that's it, reboot the machine now.
When the GRUB is loading press Esc and select a new kernel.
