Perfect!  That reproduces (or probably should say unveils) the bug.

I'd had a go at breaking things but nothing quit so blunt as simply
over-writing xorg.conf with nonsense ;-)

Have done

  sudo su 
  cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
  echo foobar >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf

I get the following symptoms:

 - If I boot with a 2.6.31-15 generic kernel then I get an unreadable failsafe screen ("running in low resolution mode ....").
 - If I boot with a 2.6.28-16 generic kernel then I get a reabable failsafe screen ("running in low resolution mode ....").

The situation is slightly better than before because "2.6.31-15
(recovery)" now gets me to a readable menu and and I can fix my system.

Attached are Xorg.failsafe.log and Xorg.0.log

let me know if you need any more information.
