Okay, after further hardware testing, I think I've isolated the problem to my wireless card, a D-Link GWL-G630 PC card with an Atheros chipset. When I tried booting the Kubuntu CD with the wireless card not inserted, it went through the whole boot process properly, including starting X. When I tried inserting the card in during the live environment, the device was not picked up by the system and checking /dev found no new nodes that would indicate a wireless device. I'd have to find if the other person over on the forums that was having this problem has an Atheros wireless card, or if it's something else about the hardware.
