** Description changed:

  Hardware is a ThinkPad T520, which has both an Intel graphics module and
  a NVIDIA graphics card.
  
  When booting with the NVIDIA card activated in the BIOS, on previous
  versions of Ubuntu, you need to remove $linux_gfxmode from GRUB, and add
  "nomodeset".
  
  When I do this, the system consistently hangs or gives errors when
  mounting the filesystem. Screenshot will be attached of a case where it
  hung. (/dev/sda is the only HDD, with default ubuntu /boot, root, /swap)
  
  I installed 12.04 and did an upgrade to 12.10, currently using kernel
  3.5.0-16. I have upgraded the machine's BIOS to the latest available,
  with no change in this bug. This problem doesn't occur when using Intel
- graphics,
+ graphics.
+ 
+ If I did not modify the GRUB entry, the system hangs on the splash
+ screen.
+ 
+ So I have not been able to boot when using a NVIDIA card with Ubuntu
+ 12.10 right now.
