hamish: Perhaps you should read what I really wrote above. This bug is
in GDM, which may affect each distribution. Let's remember, Xubuntu is
not Ubuntu, and mixing these does make it much more confusing to
determine what is really being used. As you state, "it is still broken
in xubuntu 11.04 which makes ubuntu an unusable option" is not a valid
argument. Xubuntu 11.04 is not Ubuntu, it derived from Ubuntu. Let's
attempt to keep these separate. A bug in GDM can affect all
distributions that use it. It is still a bug in GDM.

Bug description:
  Mythbuntu upgraded pretty smoothly from 9.04 to 9.10 RC over the Net.  
  I initiated the upgrade with the command line "sudo update-manager -d".
  The conversion seemed to go ok.  All previous recordings were still accessable, showing the database was ok.

  After the upgrade and reboot, the first thing I noticed is that,
  Mythbuntu 9.10 askes me to log in every time as user eric. It didn't
  do this in version 9.04, before the upgrade. Before, Mythtv launched
  at bootup and no login was required.
