Public bug reported:

Often I'll get the following error message while booting:

GLIB WARNING ** GLib - getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)

I believe that is the error anyways. I am unable to find it in my logs.
I scribbled it down onto a piece of paper and then searched online for a
similar error. This message displays after/during Plymouth but prevents
GDM from displaying. I can hear the familiar "login ready" sound, so I
know GDM has loaded, I just cannot see it. I will then have to press a
key to get to the login screen.

I used the Alternative CD to install Alpha 3. Fully up-to-date since a
few hours ago. I do have Encrypted Home Directory set up for my main
user and this might be related. For when I get this error message, I do
not see the usual "Waiting to mount encrypted swap..." (something like
that) which appears under the Ubuntu logo.
