Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.32-7-generic
I use tty1-6 a lot and gfxpayload is no longer working with linux-image-2.6.32-7-generic. It works fine with linux-image-2.6.32-6-generic.

@Curtis -- could you confirm the behaviour on 2.6.32-8.12. I see you have ATI graphics, so if its not working there could you try booting with 'nomodeset' on the kernel command line too please and report on that as well. Thanks!
