GorillaBiscuit's idea didn't help. I tried wychwood's workaround of removing /etc/init.d/gdm so I could get to a text interface login. That worked, so I ran startx. That displayed my usual wallpaper, but no panel started and there were no icons displayed. Then the screen froze with the wait cursor displayed just as in the original bug. Does this sound like the problem occurring without gdm?
