You have been subscribed to a public bug: on Lucid, since whichever update, GDM no longer displays a usable greeter content. Instead, the mouse cursor leaves a trail of its pointer icon in it and the face browser that should appear isn't there. This was working fine until a few months ago, when I last logged into my LTSP server to work locally rather than via a thin client.
