Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I upgraded a working karmic machine to lucid, and now during boot, the splash remains and X never comes up.
I tried with no xorg.conf file at all, same thing.

>From an ssh session I tried X -configure, and the same thing is happening: X just hangs while trying to start.
Pressing Ctrl+C says
  xf86OpenConsole: VT_WAITACTIVE failed: Interrupted system call
Not sure what this means though.

The videocard is ATI Technologies Inc RV515 [Radeon X1300], and it was using radeon driver, back when it was working
 ( in fact I still have the Xorg.log from before the lucid upgrade: http://www.davidfaure.fr/2010/Xorg.0.log.ok.before.lucid )
No idea what it's doing now, since it hangs almost right away, even in failsafe mode. So I suppose this isn't video-driver related...
