Lots of Kernel related brakage in Lucid (amd64)

[Scott Beamer]

Just downloaded the latest nightly live CD and installed.

After reboot computer freezes at splash screen.

Reinstalled from a previous dialy Live CD (about a week old) and ran sudo 
apt-get-update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.

Rebooted, screen freeze again at Ubuntu splash screen.

Rebooted and reverted to previous kernal and was able to log in just fine.

On a related note....

Upgrding kernel-headers package to the latest causes apt/dpkg to lock up 
while unpackaing.

That took a lot of playing with to work around.

Workaround for now is to remain with older Kernel version 2.6.32-15
