The boot process proceeds to the time X should start, and then it hangs with a black screen. Commenting out the nvidia driver (put there by Karmic's recognizing that my motherboard has an nVidia chipset), allows X to start with imperfect video. Then if I install the nvidia driver (all three options [95, 173, 185] have the same result) and reboot, the original problem returns.
