I have this problem with a fairly 'vanilla' feisty install (not an
upgrade)

The loading cursor appears but nothing else. I can login on ctrl+alt+f1,
etc

I installed XDM and can login fine with that. I didn't make it default

If I set GDM to automatic login then that works, but if I kill the
xserver I get back to a black screen with cursor and no login prompt

I am up to date as of today.

This happened to my brother's PC and it makes it useless to him because
he can't do things like start XDM...
