Title:
  Ubuntu stuck at boot screen after latest kernel update

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The last  update performed by the "Software Updater" application has
  broken my system. When booting, the screen will be stuck at the Ubuntu
  logo seen here:  http://i.imgur.com/nfVflMN.png

  When I boot into Grub and choose to use the previous kernel
  (3.19.0-43-generic) then I can boot without a problem:
