It was still happening for me, and I investigated into a kernel patch (landed
in 2.6.36.2) yesterday.
This did not help on it's own, but I had to change GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
to GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1280x1024, see:

It *does* occur to me in Maverick, *if* I set
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
, and get the
set gfxpayload=keep
in grub.cfg
Just for completeness. Any good reason to reopen it?

Today I updated Maverick. And after several reboots without a problem. I
also think the grub-pc update might fixed the problem. And I did not use
the "nopat" option anymore.
Only the warnings in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log from comment #20 are still
there

Well, this is it. I'm feeling unsatisfied however, because I don't understand
how grub is capable of this...

As of now it is fixed for me now. Problably it is the grub-pc update to
version 1.98+20100804-4ubuntu1
The log includes this :

Seems to be the change that fixes it.
Sinds the nvidia driver version 256.44 randomly hangs at Xorg startup, there
is no way I can determine whether a workaround works. Could that be caused by
the nvidia driver version 256.44. I just read about freezes with nvidia driver
version 256.44 in Arch Linux https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewto
I can add that the "add one space"-solution does not work for me ;(

Guys,
I've just tried to start system (into X) several times with or without
grub-editing without success (the "out of memory" error). The computer
was powered off before starting.

should.

Yeah that does not surprise me. As I wrote ealier I just had to enter the

I have nvidia-current 256.44 installed now. But it behaved the same.
If I let the system boot normally I end up in low graphics mode.

@Søren: bug 616023 is about nvidia-current not working with current xserver -
my workaround to this was adding/using the xorg-edgers ppa, but nvidia-current

I would have expected the dependencies to hold the xserver upgrade back though.
