I'm not near the machine for the rest of the day, but, as I 
recall, it simply said "Failed to build module..." or something 
to that effect. When it tried to start x it failed and resulted 
in a text log-in run-level 3 screen. As I said, when I rebooted, 
I simply selected the previous kernel and all came up well.
