Bryce, installed the ppa see this grub.cfg entry:

linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-997-generic root=UUID=fcf85719-2242-4b65-a162-a41060902f45 ro quiet splash nomodeset

and cat /proc/version:

Linux version 2.6.33-997-generic (root@zinc) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #201003091338 SMP Tue Mar 9 14:32:16 UTC 2010

Do note even though it says to boot "nomodeset" KMS is actually active. That just started happening today with the 1 April aptitude -q update safe-upgrade.

If the next crash is such that "ssh" will work I'll try the wiki directions.

Thanks, Jerry
