i am using an lenovo s10-3 netbook (which has pretty much a stock netbook configuration), which i updated from lucid to maverick (i386). The last 2.6.35 kernel which is working, is 2.6.35.3-maverick (2.6.35-02063503-generic) from the mainline ppa. when i boot 2.6.35-22-generic (latest maverick kernel as of this writing) or 2.6.35.4 from mainline ppa i get stuck with a black screen and a blinking prompt. i did download the daily maverick livecd and there was the same behaviour when trying to boot from it. when i boot without "quiet splash" from the livecd i can see it stalls after the message "[drm] initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810". nomodeset does not seem to help either. i tried the lates 2.6.36rc kernels from the mainline ppa for maverick, but it was the same with those kernels.

Please run 'apport-collect 643045' on your machine, as this will collect the right info our kernel team needs to diagnose the problem. Thanks, Robbie.
