I also have the same issue on a HP Pavillion (Intel Graphic card).
After upgrading to 9.10 the system hangs few seconds after finishing starting up.
I removed compiz Samba and any other application that I beieved could cause the issue. The problem remains.
Also, I downloaded the iso start disk and the problem also appears when running 9.10 from the CD.
