It would *really* have helped if you'd told us earlier, for one thing - basically, now, if we find a blocker bug, we have to slip the release a week. The X stack hasn't changed since about last Wednesday, so this bug must have been there then. :( But, aside from that if you see a cursor, then X has at least half started, so - can you boot to runlevel 3, without the blacklisting / disabling modeset stuff? If so, then do that, log in, run 'startx' and note any errors, and also post /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old after rebooting. Ben, can you please take a look at this problem, and also maybe test RC2 on your stack of test machines? I don't actually have any NVIDIA systems where I am now, though I think jlaska has probably tested on some.
