I note this bug is for 32-bit again. I have changed the hardware designation, but
@Ben: please change it back if you disagree.

M7beta3 x64 Classic ISO real h/w Radeon video all desktops...
 GDM -> Xfce (with the iffy transition, bug#24134) works, I am using it to write this. 
@ Ben: I rather think that you already confirmed the same (all desktops launch from all DMs) for 64-bit?
Assigning this to Jani because bug#24134 is already with him, and this one also is an Xfce login problem.

I observed this in VirtualBox, I think for both 32-bit and 64-bit installs. It only happened on the first boot after install, rebooting appeared to cure the problem. Go figure...
