No full restore - but I did copy my /etc/fstab file over from my 9.04 system. I always do fresh install of new releases to specifically avoid issues with leftover cruft from previous versions.

I do have some PPAs for various packages (like BURG) but I cannot recall specifically what all the other repositories I had at the time I noticed this problem. I did have an ATI hardware driver PPA repository before Ubuntu made the official hardware drivers available for 10.04 - that was removed once the official ones became available.

As I was an Alpha user, it is not beyond the possibility that an early package did use this old stuff during the part of the development cycle that I jumped in on. I did have the issue (initially) with the redundant usbfs entry in /etc/fstab (which was required for VMware Server) which hangs 10.04, but I don't know if that is a factor.
