No text. I *can* log in by guessing what happens in the screen (no text shown...) - the Xubuntu desktop opens, with background and the panels, but most of the panel widgets are "missing" and I must only guess what should be on screen: something should appear, but nothing can be seen. The terminals (Ctrl+F1...F6) works nicely though. Possibly affected packages (my guess): linux, xorg, gdm, xfwm4 Temporary fix: By choosing kernel 2.6.32-33 in boot time Can be reproductable: By choosing kernel 2.6.32-34 in boot time What changed: (here is a part of the diff against the new(<) and old(>) version): (most suspectable diff parts, selected from /var/log: dmesg, messages, debug, daemon.log, syslog, kern.log): < [TIMESTAMP] Linux version 2.6.32-34-generic (buildd@vernadsky) - (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #77-Ubuntu SMP - Tue Sep 13 19:40:53 UTC 2011 (Ubuntu 2.6.32-34.77-generic 2.6.32.44+drm33.19) + (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #77-Ubuntu SMP + Tue Sep 13 19:40:53 UTC 2011 (Ubuntu 2.6.32-34.77-generic 2.6.32.44+drm33.19) --- > [TIMESTAMP] Linux version 2.6.32-33-generic (buildd@zirconium) - (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #72-Ubuntu SMP - Fri Jul 29 21:08:37 UTC 2011 (Ubuntu 2.6.32-33.72-generic 2.6.32.41+drm33.18) + (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #72-Ubuntu SMP + Fri Jul 29 21:08:37 UTC 2011 (Ubuntu 2.6.32-33.72-generic 2.6.32.41+drm33.18) < [TIMESTAMP] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-2.6.32-34-generic - root=UUID=b68f5eec-3aa8-4780-a47e-c3bd1e26389c ro quiet splash + root=UUID=b68f5eec-3aa8-4780-a47e-c3bd1e26389c ro quiet splash --- > [TIMESTAMP] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-2.6.32-33-generic - root=UUID=b68f5eec-3aa8-4780-a47e-c3bd1e26389c ro quiet splash + root=UUID=b68f5eec-3aa8-4780-a47e-c3bd1e26389c ro quiet splash < [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: - allocated 1280x1024 fb: 0x45000, bo dfbb9c00 + allocated 1280x1024 fb: 0x45000, bo dfbb9c00 --- > [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: - allocated 1280x1024 fb: 0x45000, bo df015800 + allocated 1280x1024 fb: 0x45000, bo df015800 ... < [TIME] wader kernel: [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 < [TIME] wader kernel: [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 < [TIME] wader acpid: client 920[0:0] has disconnected < [TIME] wader acpid: client connected from 920[0:0] < [TIME] wader acpid: 1 client rule loaded < [TIME] wader kernel: [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 < [TIME] wader kernel: [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 < [TIME] wader kernel: [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 < [TIME] wader kernel: [TIMESTAMP] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: validate: -12 ...

And yet, it could be something with my Nvidia RIVA TNT2 graphics card and nouveau kernel driver..? I'm pretty sure it is the kernel package that causes this problem. I can try uploading /var/log/apt/history.log if needed for more suspects.
