I recently installed Xubuntu 12.04 alpha2 and have updated it equivalent
to beta1. The X display does not automatically bring up a login screen.
What I currently have to do is to get a login (using Alt-F2 or Alt-F1),
login as root, then run lightdm from the bash command line, which brings
up a login, and I can login with my user ID, after which X appears to
run normally with Xfce etc.

model name      : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3800+
cpu MHz         : 1000.000

This problem doesn't seem to depend on whether I have an xorg.conf file
in /etc/X11

I have appended  a gzip file which includes Xorg.0.* at various stages,
my xorg.conf file, and dmesg output.
