10.04 rc update problems

[Kjetil Halvorsen]

Update:  I tried the latest ideas, by remouving  nouveau. no effect, the
same symptoms as before:
the boot seems to go well, the violet screen appears, and I am asked to log
in and give password. The mouse and everything functions. But then, the
desktop do not appear, and I am left with something which effectively is a
text shell . the screen continues violet, except for the shell.

No I will give the info I was asked for:
