To all those other s*ckers, like me, who install, like me, sarge as from today from scratch with gdm version 2.4.4.7-3.
Symptoms: gnome does not display anything after logging in through gdm-login except for a blue screen and a mouse pointer.
This is a hint about what is wrong:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=241323
It does not start gnome-session
Workaround: edit your /etc/dm/Sessions/default.desktop modify "Exec=default" to "Exec=custom"
Save the attached file (from an earlier release) in your ~/.xsession chmod +x ~/.xsession
/etc/init.d/gdm restart
Couple of other things as well: It fails to set gdm as the default window manager update-alternatives --show x-window-manager
YMMV, DNTTAHK, etc.
Or, install wdm instead.

David.
