Package: linux-image-2.6-686
Version: 2.6.32+29
Severity: important

I ran 'aptitude safe-upgrade' (!) this morning a few minutes after waking up 
the computer
from hibernation. During the installation process, a kernel oops was reported 
on all
consoles and the installation process did not finish. After waiting for around 
twenty
minutes, I tried to shut down the machine, but shutdown did not complete; it 
hang
somewhere after Squid shutdown. I had to switch off power.

After restarting the machine X cannot be starteed. Using either GDM 3 or Xinit 
will result
in a blank screen. Switching to a console using <Ctrl><Alt><F2> etc. is 
possible but GDM 3
or Xinit still have to be ended manually. Xinit reports 'module fbcon not 
available.'

This means my system was rendered unusable by an automatic safe upgrade.
