Bug Description
[Update: When upgrading the kernel on a system where binary video drivers (e.g. nvidia) are installed, it must detect and cause these to be upgraded as well. Otherwise X will fail to start after the kernel upgrade.]
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.17
After an update to the 2.6.17-10-generic kernel packages and restricted modules i get an error when i try to start X. My Xorg.log has the following:

Same problem here (Edgy Eft Amd64).
It happened because I have the nvidia proprietary drivers installed (this is why proprietary drivers are bad:))
To solve the problem, do the following:
After your PC runs into the blue "X problem" screen, press Ctrl-Alt-F1 to go to the console in text mode. restricted- modules- 2.6.17- 11-generic
In the console, login, then type:
sudo apt-get installlinux-
Reboot.
Or, if you don't like to use the console and type commands do the following:
When the PC start you have the choice to boot: d-modules- 2.6.17- 10-generic, that is installed d-modules- 2.6.17- 11-generic that is not installed
Ubunt, kernel 2.6.17-11-generic
Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.17-10-generic
Choose kernel 2.6.17-10-generic, the PC will start normally.
Log in and start Synaptic (System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager)
Search "nvidia"
You will find:
linux-restricte
and
linux-restricte
Mark linux-restricte d-modules- 2.6.17- 11-generic for installation and press Apply.
Reboot.
It seems this update should have been installed at the same time than the kernel 2.6.17-11.1 update, but wasn't.
