Bug Description
Binary package hint: gdm
in gdb-2.20 (gdm-legacy) in karmic, gdm could be configured to work with xvfb by editing /etc/gdm/gdm.conf:
sed -i s,/usr/
sed -i s,VTAllocation=
since lucid, there is no gdm-legacy package more around.
This configuration is useful for using freenx or nomachines NX server in an ubuntu container like LXC, openvz or linux vserver.

I've also poked a bit in the source, it seems that the path and options to the xserver are now hardcoded in the source in current versions of gdm.
