Bug Description
I'm using Kubuntu 10.10 i386 and an nVidia GeForce 9500 GT with proprietary drivers.
After upgrading to 2.6.35-25 (mesa?) graphics are broken. With this I mean:
1) When booting normally, it stucks at the boot logo, long before kdm.
2) When booting in recovery mode, I can see few lines of the kernel starting up which stuck and, later, a few green artifacts on the screen above the kernel lines.
It's very similar to bug #703553 , but I can't access the tty shell both by pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1 and by entering recovery mode, making it impossibile for me to install nvidia proprietary drivers against this kernel and, obviously, using my pc as normal.
2.6.35-24 is the latest working release.

Thanks, Brian.
Also, I couldn't choose `linux (Ubuntu Maverick)` as an affected package like in bug #703553 , can you kindly do it for me?
