In response to #59 please re read #54, in the latest versions i am unable to see anything on screen apart from the vertical coloured lines this applies to 2.6.32-22 and 2.6.32-23. If you have a way i can fulfil your request then please let me know and I will attempt it. I still do not understand your answer #58, as i stated all apport results were carried out on lucid or at least against grub entries that say they are lucid. I have supplied two sets of apport results on 2.6.32-20 and 2.6.32-21. I am currently using 2.6.32-20 as this does not have the problem. I can work on 2.6.32-21 but this involves waiting for an inactivity timeout to occur then after inputting my password I can work, before the timeout i just have the vertical coloured lines on the screen (Unfortunately no noticeable timeout occurs on -22 or -23 so i can never see anything on the screen). As I have said before I am not technically knowledgeable in Unix/Linux, but I am willing to attempt anything you suggest in order to resolve this issue. As regards a screenshot I dont possess a digital camera but I will try to borrow one, and will supply as soon as poss.
