This problem still exists with the latest kernel upgrade to -10.
Desktop had patchy and intermittent operation with the earlier kernels and will start in (I think) 2D mode with -08, it has yet to operate smoothly.

Title:
  Oneiric won't start x on boot up

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Upgrade to 11.10 Alphafrom 11.04. On reboot hung at "Checking Battery State". It looked as though x was trying to start but not succeeding.
  Rebooted using Recovery mode. Found the Low Graphics option was not there.
  Ran Broken Packages option which replaced a lot of stuff, then Continue Normal Boot.
  Was dropped to command prompt to login. After logging in tried "startx". Looked as though x was starting then stopped at screen with error message box "Failed to load session "Gnome" and a logout button which dropped me back to command prompt.
  AMD64, X6 CPU, Radeon HD3870
