Then see whether the images boot under 2.6.38-5.

I added the repository and updated, but that did not make any
kernel packages available. So, I got
   http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-lts-backport-natty/linux-image-2.6.38-5-generic_2.6.38-5.32~lucid1_amd64.deb
and installed that.

It did not change the behavior of kvm (it did change the other thing
I mentioned: that kernel would not boot on main power - only on
battery).

Since IIRC the problem began after some update to 10.04, I'll try
a few packages from that in order looking for the change.
