Well, one of the key files for gdm is /etc/gdm/Xsession (assuming built with --sysconfdir=/etc). Basically, that file gets run on login, and in turn runs whatever environment you've requested - in my case, gnome-session. Looking at the script, it actually does attempt to load some of your bash settings - specifically, it sources /etc/profile and ~/.profile if they exist. You might want to have a look at it, work out what you need to change. Simon.
