Yes, that's correct. Just run the update-manager in the live CD session (maybe you have to configure Software Sources, in all cases you'll just need the normal "main" component). Then only update the packages in question. After logging out, log in again with username "ubuntu" and empty password.

For which logs to get you can for instance look at the timestamp of the log file and correlate it with the time when you had the broken screen.
