Sorry to be late in my answer. I don't know if this problem is the same as bug
#516520.
I get to login screen quite normally (I get some warning while booting but this
was happening also before this problem showed up). In the login window I notice
the option "session" is missing, then after login I am in failsafe mode (but I
did not boot in failsafe mode) having only xterm. X is working, i.e. I can
launch programs normally (I even watched a video using vlc, to say... but no
sound) but the windows doesn't not have the title bar, and I can't
move/resize,minimize them. If I launch a program a window just appears in some
spot where it is doomed to stay with a definite size (this differs between
different programs, I think this depends on some predefined configuration of
said programs). So I thought it was a gdm problem. I can provide any
information you want (I can connect to the internet from terminal and use
firefox) if you can guide me I will be happy to help.
This problem seems not to be kernel-related since I tried booting another
kernel (2.6.31-14) and got the same behavior.
Tried to reinstall gdm (using aptitude) but nothing changed, please note that
my system is fully updated.
