I also have just tried out the proposed gdm fix and am all up and running again. Thanks to all who have helped with this one. My situation was Ubuntu install where I added kubuntu-desktop and chose kdm, hence gdm and kdm co-resident. As laptop had intel graphics I got as others with intel graphics have commented only garbled console and no X. Initial workaround for me was to remove the splash option in grub interactively. But now all working fine. Thanks again.
