I just upgraded my Asus laptop from 9.04 to 9.10. When I try to boot the 2.6.31 kernal, it shows the new white ubuntu boot splash image for a second, then drops to a blinking white cursor and hangs. I tried the 2.6.28 kernal and it does start X and I can log in, but the mouse doesn't work. Also, before it starts X, I see some command-line type bootup stuff talking about initializing RestrictredDrivers and AppArmor. The virtual terminals work fine, I just don't know how to use them, really. Help please!

I'm pretty sure my laptop has integrated Intel graphics, just in case that's important.
