So, there was a new kernel update today - version 2.6.31-17.54 - with exactly the same results: frozen at Ubuntu splash screen immediately after selecting kernel to load. Could someone (other than the OP) please just copy and paste the following message into this thread: We're busy right now...

I'd just like to confirm that what I described above is still the case: web browsing exceptionally slow, while newsreader zips along at usual speeds. Is this a different bug? Should I file a bug report elsewhere? How would i test to see what is actually the cause of the problem... which package?

Something - and I don't know what - changed the the default num in my menu.lst. I had set it to 4, so that 2.6.31.14 would always load, and it was changed back to 0 at some point, by one or another update, I have to assume. As I described, the newer kernels will not load. Don't know if it's

It would be nice if you could check to see if linux-image 2.6.31.14 works properly for you as well, no? Hopefully that would kind of narrow some possibilities. Being neither a programmer nor hacker, I have no clue myself. Thanks for replying... at least I know this thread is actually working. :)
