Bug#689381: general: Login screen fails to appear, though you can still interact with it

[Gregory <gregoryplummer@gmail.com>]

Package: general
Severity: important

After booting into Debian 6.0.6 the login screen fails to appear. This is an
intermittant problem.
I still hear the sound associated with the login screen and can interact with
it (eg enter my password and log in) but the screen itself is not visible. The
only thing visible is the default background colour.
