Thanks, Robert, for reviewing the lightdm.log output. I´m sure you are right - this is mainly an xorg issue. I´ve filed earlier bug reports on this hardware - see in particular Bug #707755 against development versions of Natty 11.04. :´

Ubuntu version and kernel version
 DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
 DISTRIB_RELEASE=11.04
 DISTRIB_CODENAME=natty
 DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu natty (development branch)"
 Linux hp 2.6.37-12-generic #26-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 5 18:42:49 UTC 2011 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3800+
 cpu MHz : 1000.000

As mentioned in that bug report, I was able to come up with a workaround involving installing an xorg.conf file. Currently I´m putting that in /etc/X11/ - maybe I should try /usr/share/X11 ?
