kernel 2.6.32-24 worked fine on the Lenovo T410i laptop. Upgrading to 25 boot shows the "Glib-Warning: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user" (a common problem it appears and with the "splash" option the boot process hangs.
WORKAROUND: Remove "splash".

I was able to get the old kernel to work again by doing this:
update-initramfs -u -k 2.5.32-24
Booting there I realized the sound still didn't work correctly. This is likely a separate issue, bug #674386
Issue with splash screen/boot hang of course remains.
