Apologies for the lack of clarity. In a nutshell:

Ubuntu: latest ISO [ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso, build 20120424.1 ] ==> 
CDRom, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apache2, perl, sendmail, mysql, 
yaz, idzebra-2.0

Koha: koha-3.08.03.tar.gz, install_misc/ubuntu.packages, make|test|install

Koha db: mysql dump from production 3.6.1, restore, let Koha staff-admin 
"do its thing."

Verify that "use zebra" is checked, re-index auths and biblios 
(separately), verify cron functions

Everything (as far as I have verified so far) is fully functional, _EXCEPT_ 
OPAC and staff-admin search functions.

I now have 3 servers running 3 different versions of Koha: 3.6.1 
(production 64-bit machine), 3.6.7 (sandbox i386), and this latest 3.8.3 -- 
fyi, I've looked at users, groups, permissions (my first guess as to why 
zebra was non-funtional), compared with the two other installations and 
cannot see any obvious differences.

My "end-game" is to get 3.8.3 onto the production server with the least 
possible downtime -- hence this trial on a near-identical 64-bit machine (6 
core Intel i7-980X, solid state raided drives, 16Gb ram.)
