Ahhh! No login screen!

I had a small emergency last week when I was playing around with themes for Ubuntu. Somehow, I lost my login screen. When I booted, rather than the nice graphical login, I got a command line login. After logging in, I could type startx to access the desktop. The login screen is handled by a package called GDM, I fixed my problem by typing: sudo apt-get install gdm --reinstall However using synaptic to re-install gdm would probably have worked also.
