Chris/list:

I have tried booting into the following kernels, all exhibiting the same 
issue:

2.6.31-20-generic
2.6.31-19-generic
2.6.31-14-generic

I believe 2.6.31-14-generic is the original kernel installed with this version 
of Ubuntu, so unless the change to the kernel you're thinking occurred 
previous to the 9.10 Karmic release, it's not the culprit here.
