After kernel update restart - x or screen did not load

[Daniel Stone]

Binary package hint: upstart

After update / upgrade to new version kernel .19
I accepted restart now computer went through boot process
this was seen on screen when login came up
sound was made but without screen appearing(no gui)
This was after update today
This may not be upstart it may be against kernel but either way
the user interface did not load and forced additional restart(hardware)
Steps to reproduce
accept update
accept to restart now
