I installed a backport 2.6.35 from Maverick to Lucid, and that seems to have resolved this errors for me:

 rich@theroux:~$ uname -a
 Linux theroux 2.6.35-19-generic #25~lucid1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 25 04:24:28 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I found the backport details at <http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/kernel-ppa?dist=lucid>

I ran these commands, to install the backport:

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
 sudo aptitude update
 sudo aptitude install linux-image-generic-lts-backport-maverick linux-headers-generic-lts-backport-maverick

The graphical splash screen doesn't seem to work too well on my netbook with 2.6.35, so I disabled it in the GRUB2 config -- see <http://richdawe.livejournal.com/7368.html>.
