Sorry, Alberto, I can't get into recovery mode. From what I remember, recovery mode is an option after the logon screen, and the video craziness starts just before the logon screen. I suppose I could boot from a karmic cd, but where would I look for the log? IMHO, a "can't start" bug is worse than the "can't update because of broken package" bug that this started as.
