Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

Have just seen this on my ASUS-M4N82 MB with up to date Mint-Linux kernel of 2.6.35-28 full 64-bit system, but I just installed the new Nvidia screen drivers x86_64-270.41.06.run on my XServer 1.9.0 dated: 2010-08-20, which was some what trouble some and spotted the gdm-simple-greeter[1784]: Gtk-WARNING:

The First screen error was unreadable , thus I looked in the Xorg.0.log file to see the WARNING in the Xorg.failsafe.log file.
The screen did manage to find a use able configuration, but not the required Mode for the attached LG screen.

Now I do not know if this is totally incorrect route or not, so sorry if it is, but it seems very odd that it occurs at the same time.
I will continue to follow up on your fixes and if I spot any thing else of interest then I will post for your eyes.
Go well and enjoy Colleen O' Strand.
