I should have answered your questions: so I had a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 on this box about 2 months ago, and then when the 9.10 update came out (Nove 1st), I updated. I had the problem with login from the start (so even with 9.04). I changed one thing in X: 3 weeks after the distro upgrade X suddenly started to display only in very low resolution, so I manually added a 1680x1050 resolution. Here is my xorg.conf (beginning comments stripped)
