Georg Duffner - thank you. It's possible that this is a problem in the
kernel framebuffer or in some other Lucid component relating to the
newer kernel.

I still have kernel 2.6.31-20-generic in my Lucid /boot directory, and
was able to boot into this. The login screen came up properly, and the
Gnome screen is now properly aligned. Possible reasons this works:

1. The framebuffer is different between Karmic and Lucid kernels
2. Some component of Lucid wasn't started because of the old kernel - there were some screen messages during boot which might indicate that. Such a non-started component may have been the cause of the problem.
