 Whats your display card ? I had same issue with i945 chipset, infact
worse as I did inbox upgrade and X would never come up. I can confirm
teh problem with i945 and radeon chipset. Turns out ubuntu shipped
with faulty xorg and they are aware of this. You need to add a ppa and
upgrade X to get things to work. Read more here

Surely this ubuntu deserves a -10 out of 10 :(
