Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Image maverick-desktop-i386.iso, md5sum d3d2cce04cd8fc4a75138f93cd1bf3e3

I made a USB key and booted an HP Elitebook 8440p model WH255UT#ABA.
(Chipset: Mobile Intel QM57 Express, graphics: Intel Graphics Media
Accelerator HD.)  I selected "Try Kubuntu without installing".  The
screen flashed repeatedly, then showed a blinking underscore cursor,
then turned black.  After some seconds I heard the KDE start-up sound,
but the screen stayed black. Ctrl-Alt-F1 did nthing.

With "splash" removed from the boot options, the result was the same.
With "nomodeset" selected, the screen showed the "Ubuntu" boot screen, then flashed and went black.  No sound played, and odd colors slowly faded in.
With "nomodeset" and no "splash", the screen showed boot messages, went black, and faded in odd colors.  No sound played.

In short, this is just like Lucid bug 557744.
