It's hard to tell -- I am not sure what patches the Ubuntu guys put on.

To summarize, this is what we know:

1. Commit 08d6832 breaks the login
2. Commit a1e80fa fixes commit 08d6832 (this is in 2.6.35)
3. Commit f7809da also breaks the login (this is in 2.6.36-rc1 and later)
4. Frederick's new patch fixes commit f7809da (this hasn't been checked in)

So, it will break

1. If your kernel has 08d6832 and not a1e80fa

OR

2. If you have commit f7809da

OR

3. Some other issue.
