Did this get fixed already, or worked around? I updated this morning, saw some sysv etc. updates and kernel 10.35, and have booted twice without nomodeset now without incident.
By the way, when I did have the problem, it was particularly troublesome on my Eee PC 1000HEB, because it apparently left the LCD brightness in an "off" state, even across cold reboots. Hard brightness keys brought it back up though.
