The problem seems to be related to fglrx. Xorg complained that this file
could not be found.

I removed gdm and reinstalled it.
The allowed me to get into the desktop, although the resolution was low.
I installed all available updates and rebooted and things look fine now.

In addition, I noticed that the update reset my software sources. I
enabled the restricted sources, which may have allowed my ATI driver to
get picked up, which I think is why I have graphics working now.

So, I don't understand everything that happened, but I am working now.
But, I think that there may be a bug in the upgrade relating to restricted 
drivers for video cards. Mine is an ATI.
