Ok, I got my gdm stable again.

=> in the /etc/gdm/custom.conf I added in the past manually some settings.
More specific, I added two parameters: 

IncludeAll=false
Include=user1,user2,user3

(where user1,... where the users I wanted to be used by gdm to show in the 
login screen).
At some point there was an issue in gdm that is was showing all users on the 
login screen.  Apparently this got fixed at some point.

I now excluded these two setting and now gdm is stable again.  The issue is no 
longer happening.  
I can now run again Ubuntu for weeks without rebooting and having multiple 
users using it.  

In itself this issue is solved.  If some developer wants, he can of
course investigate further why gdm could become instable when these two
settings are used.

enjoy,

Walter
