=== system now useless ===

Loaded a lot of updates today: a new kernel, gdm, gnome-session-manager and others.
- Booting without 'nomodeset' does not work because KMS is broken, no change here (bug 509273)
- Have to boot into recovery mode and then resume normal boot because gdm is broken (bug 516520)
- Could not use 'resume normal boot' anymore because Plymouth seems broken (no bugreport yet but removing Plymouth solved this. will fime one in a minute)
- Can not get into my GUI anymore by manually starting X, because now X/Gnome is broken (no bugreport yet but will do so in a minute)

My Ubuntu installation is now effectively FOOBAR, so I'm back to booting Windows XP..... hip hip hooray! (not)
I must say that Alpha was a lot more stable than beta is now :-((
