Hi,

Karmic beta will not boot, either from live CD or when installed when
both my flatscreens are connected (one through VGA, one through DVI) to
my nVidia 7900 card.  The screen will hang with graphical corruption,
switching to a tty gives a blinking cursor.

Disconnecting one or the other monitor makes ubuntu boot again (both
live and installed). Once binary drivers are installed, the problem goes
away.
