I can confirm this bug on my Lenovo y550 Ideapad laptop which has Nvidia Geforce GT130M graphics card. After installing Nvidia restricted drivers my system freezes during bootup with a blank screen (actually its purple screen!) . I am trying the latest Ubuntu 10.10 RC build. Just 3 days are left for final release and I fear that I won't be able to use the latest edition this time.
