Notice that startx uses different config files (.Xauthority?!), while
the init xdm uses the variables of etc/conf.d/xdm, so, adding xdm to

Could you post the result of "ps af | grep xdm" ?

When I boot my computer into Gentoo and it tries to go to the log in
portion, X11 simply stops and drops me back to the console. While
attempting to load X11 the Nvidia logo flashes twice and then back to
