Binary package hint: gdm

using the LiveCD of Wednesday 3/31/2010, Thursday's or Friday's, the machine does not display anything.
The screen goes blank/black.
Similar, if machine that was working, is updated with the lastest and greatest packages. The grub menu
comes up, then monitor goes blank/black.

In the latter case, I can still ssh to the machine. 
This was in the /var/log/syslog, but not sure if it has any meaning:
