Title:
  gdm freezes on startup

Status in gdm package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop machine. The first
  reboots were fine, but after installing fglrx drivers GDM freezes as
  it starts up. With autologin enabled, I get to see my mouse, the
  background and hear part of the start melody before everything freezes
  - I can't move the mouse or switch to a terminal.

  With GDM autologin disabled, I just get to see the login background
  before it freezes. The problem also remains after removing the fglrx
  drivers.

  I can start X without problems using startx. XDM as a login manager
  also works.
