Does anyone have this NV5x-based video card, and can boot the 3.5.1

The last kernel I can boot is 3.5.0. The two kernels that follow are hanging for me, at
the point where everything gets handed over to plymouth and userland. I've waited long
enough to be certain that things are really at a screeching halt, and userspace is not
coming up, blindly, behind the scenes.
I don't really have anything solid that points to the video card as the culprit.
It's just a hunch. 849341.
I have a GeForce GT 230, which I believe is NV5x based on

Booting just fine.
