This is true.
I have Nvidia graphic card (285 GTX) and 64-bit Lucid-alpha2.
This makes using terminal impossible.
As a workaround one has to downgrade the packages "plymouth" and "libplymouth2" back to the version 0.8.0~-7

So just download the packages (64-bit lucid) from:
https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/amd64?text=plymouth
and then reboot to recovery mode, drop to terminal, go to the directory where you downloaded packages, then run:
dpkg -i plymouth_0.8.0~-7_amd64.deb libplymouth2_0.8.0~-7_amd64.deb
and reboot.
