I can confirm this bug, latest Natty packages on a Dell Inspiron 8600.
In addition, the text mode is corrupted and reversed (O_o) in addition
to not allowing X to start. I've done a lot of searching by forcing a
framebuffer mode for textmode, and can only come down to the "set
gfxpayload..." line in grub. I have no idea how to fix it, but I thought
I'd chime in...
