  Updated to date
  2) Don't know
  3) I'm expecting the system to give an X session, but it goes to a white screen. 
  4) I get a white screen and the woraround I could find is to to the following steps
  
  a) CTRL + ALT + F1
  b) Login
  c) sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
  d) startx
  
  After those 4 steps I can use the system with no other issues
  
  I have Compiz enabled and the video board is an nvidia: 01:00.0 VGA
  compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] (rev a1)
