Confirmed: bug is still present in Hardy kernel 2.6.24-1.

After installing the kernel and rebooting, the splash continues to appear (centred as usual), then the screen goes black with a blinking cursor in top-left. KDM/X doesn't start. Had to reboot in Recovery mode (no VGA=) to run X and also get a TTY at 80x25.

Other weirdness is that I cannot find a record in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/Xorg.log for when I booted with 2.6.24, which prevents me giving any useful information other than "it doesn't work". Sorry.
