Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Could not load Ubuntu 10.04 at all from the live cd, would only get a blank screen.
Had to install off the alternate CD, boot into single user mode (using nouveau.modeset=0), start X in safe mode, and finally enable the current nVidia driver before system could be used.

Changing the GRUB boot param to "nosplash" (thanks, #147623 !!) just pushed the problem back to when after I'd logged in. :(
