To add to that, another quick fix did work for me, the one suggested here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/163525
i.e.:
sudo chown root:shadow /sbin/unix_chkpwd
sudo chmod 2755 /sbin/unix_chkpwd
The suggestion there was that this might be a bug in libpam-modules,
Just to note that the quick fix didn't work for me, although the problem
sounds identical. Running ubuntu-eee 8.04 on an asus eeepc 901.
~$ ls -l /etc/shadow
-rw-r- 1 root shadow 911 2009-01-04 12:08 /etc/shadow
(Not sure where to find my auth.log)
cheers

Okay, thanks for responses on this so far. I've just done a clean
install of 8.10, plus updates as of 31-12-08.
Using driver 173 (selected through restricted drivers dialogue) creates
identical problem of very low resolution indeed.
The dialogue now offers, and recommends, driver version 177. Thi
Problem found on newer version, requested info now attached.

Used
$ sudo gtf 1440 900 60
$ sudo gtf 1280 800 60
to generate modelines instead of the website referenced above. Figures were
different so I changed xorg.conf to include:
Modeline"1440x900_60.00" 106.47 1440 1520 1672 1904 900 901

Another fresh install of Hardy, downloaded all updates 18/08/08 and used
restricted drivers manager to add nvidia driver. Same problems
occurring, but this time I followed advice at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto and have
improved screen resolution issues.
Specifically:
After reading other various bits of advice I've tried:
sudo mkdir /usr/lib32
sudo touch /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1
sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new
(which seemed to work)
And:
sudo apt-get install envyng-core
envyng -t
