I have a similar issue where if gdm is brought up by init, the X.org server will be burning cpu cycles and not display anything. If I kill the X server with root privs from another VC, then the gdm prompt will come up. I don't recall right now if that particular problem happens every other time or if it's a variable number of X server re-starts that causes this. For me it was a sid->sid upgrade that did this, and the xorg server upgrade was done a while ago. -Peter -- The 5 year plan: In five years we'll make up another plan.
