robert j hanson, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

I upgraded to 12.04 and at reboot, I got an error box saying that the monitor settings could not be restored. The keyboard and mouse were dead, and I cannot get past this point. The so-called upgrade resulted in a totally unusuable system. I have booted the 11.10 CD-ROM and am running in Try It mode now. All my files are on hard disk are avaialable mounted as "487 MB file system". What do I cleanup so I can boot from the hard disk again?
