Hi Christopher,

I had the same problem as you did only with 2.6.9_681 kernel.
I also thought it was kernel related at first. do your self a favour and 
intstall your old kernel again and see if thats what is causing it.

I discovered that it was not the kernel itself but it was the  driver for my 
south bridge chip that did not load. The south brige control quite a lot of 
you resources. I am not sure however why my pc still worked, I suppose the 
kernel has some generic thing in it.
I had to "modprobe shpchp" to my rc.local
Now she runs
Hope this helps
