uname:

same problem for last 11-12 days.
Also GDM never appears. All console is locked( either ctrl+F1...F10 or ctrl-alt+F1...F10 work ) .
I have to select in GRUB safe mode in order to access ubuntu (with startx).
Tried to make it  default through gdmsetup and found is locked.
Tried "gksudo gdmsetup" in order to run in "unlocked" enviroment. Nothing.

Title:
  gdmsetup does not let me unlock

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  (I think it is not a duplicate of bug #440502)

  On Ubuntu 10.04, on which I installed lubuntu-desktop and set by
  default the lubuntu connection manager.

  I want to set back GDM, but gdmsetup does not let me unlock it: the "unlock" button has not effect, even if i launch "sudo gdmsetup".
  (i tried also with UbuntuTweak: it does not unlock also)

  Below the logs with "gdmsetup" and "sudo gdmsetup":
