I have the behavior on 8.10 (latest patches) that I couldn't graphically login anymore at boot: this started after I have mistakenly stopped and restarted dbus from System->Admin->Services ; the only solution was to switch to VT1 (Alt+F1), login and run "sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart" at every boot and then switch to VT7 (Alt+F7).

Creating symbolic link in /etc/rc2.d/ with "sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/dbus /etc/rc2.d/S12dbus" as per muhkuh2k suggestion fixed the problem.
