No, it has not been fixed. I just downloaded ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso
and booted it as a live CD, and it's still looping.

If anything, the problem has gotten worse: with alpha 4, the desktop background
and menu bars appeared briefly before I got thrown back to the login countdown,
but now they don't: I just get the countdown, a few seconds of black screen,
countdown, black screen, countdown, etc.
