Reboot your machine and log in to a recovery session. I would use the one
from your older kernel, not the 2.6.31-14-generic kernel, just to be safe.
When a box comes up, pick something like 'root shell with networking', I don't
remember the exact wording. You will drop to a terminal as root, be careful.
Then type
apt-get update
let that finish and type
apt-get dist-upgrade
When done, type
shutdown -r
That will reboot your system nicely. Hopefully that fixes the problem.
