- Downloaded nightly build, made a live stick.

- Problems starting the image, total failure with display, terminal
Ctrl-Alt-F1 in mess, too.

- Start with "nomodeset", success.

- Doing apport-collect was not possible, too many problems:

----------------------------------------------------
You need to run 'sudo apt-get install python-apport' for apport-collect to work.

sudo apt-get install python-apport

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with
--fix-missing?

sudo apt-get update

-----------------------------------------------------------

Summary:  Problem has always been with display driver.   Starting with 
"nomodeset" results in clean startup with limited resolution.   Installing 
proprietary GeForce drivers succeeds at that point and those closed drivers 
find correct resolution of lcd panel.
Open drivers were last time working with correct resolution when using Ubuntu 
9.10 32-bits.
