YES! I've tested the new kernel Linux 2.6.32-21-generic #31~raofnvaccel201004131332 SMP Tue Apr 13 13:06:14 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux. from http://people.canonical.com/~apw/raof-nv-accel-lucid/

Note that I removed the blacklist.conf entry for nouveau and also removed the restricted Nvidia video drivers beforehand

GREAT, indeed I could boot normally, see below for a part of the log. THANKS to eveyone to help to let Apple macbookpro owners the option to "Switch Again" ;) to Linux. Now I can continue to perform more beta testing on Lucid Lynx 10.04.

I used the normal boot line, NO additional parameters added, happy happy!
