I can confirm this on a Dell 1501. Enable ATI driver with from "Hardware Drivers" and reboot. Usplash appears as expected. After usplash finishes screen goes blank and is unresponsive to everything but a hard reboot. Reboot with failsafe and fix X works, but you're back with the Mesa driver then. This is a major regression. No problems of this sort in Gutsy.

If there is any thing else that I can supply please ask.
