Testing Beta 2 Lubuntu Desktop amd64 20120925 I can confirm the issue still exists
and the best work around is removal of splash from the kernel mode line..
Nomodeset generally works but leaves the live session in low graphics. Removal of "splash"
maintains proper grahics in the live session. Thanks mc4man.
