I recently rebooted my system (actually the system went down hard) and now I
can't log in from the X login screen.

If I log in via the console and type startx, X comes up but it's drastically
different than what I was used to. 

/var/log/messages has the following entries:
date enomem PAM_pwdb[791]: (gdm) session opened for user bmb by (uid=0)
date enomem automount[462]: attempting to mount entry /home/bmb
date enomem gdm[791]: gdm_auth_user_remove: /home/bmb is not owned by uid 0.
date enomem gdm[791]: gdm_auth_user_remove: Ignoring suspiciously looking
cookie file /home/bmb/.Xauthority

Has anyone experienced this before. I don't know much about X so when it
breaks I'm really hurting.
