So now when people say gdm3 doesn't start I wonder if it really means

Bob, I just had that happen to me. It failed to start lightdm. so in
text mode, as logged in root user, I re-installed lightdm :
apt-get install --reinstall lightdm
Then I got an error that there was a syntax error in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
I copied a back up over it and rebooted. Worked, after grinding gears
for a bit. I just had to wait longer than usual, but I heard the drive
seeking so I just waited. Then my desktop came back. Whew! Maybe you
could do the same and re-install gdm?? Ric
