Public bug reported:

This is split off from LP: #1223352 which originally described two
different regressions I was seeing with 3.0.11-6.  I've made that bug
about the Fusion VM tiny fonts issue.  This one is about the native
install greeter problem.

Specifically, when booting into 3.0.11-6, the system boots to the
greeter but you cannot type any keys or even move the mouse or click
into the password box.  No response to either devices.

Rebooting back to 3.0.11-5 gives me a usable greeter again.  Here's the
last kernel that works:
