Resolved by Jaunty upgrade.
I just re-enabled gdm with dpkg-reconfigure after upgrade and gdm
suddenly starts. I made no config changes.
Thanks.

Hmm, well the startx log has this error:

Not sure... probably next step is for this bug to go upstream.

Logitech USB Receiver is my wireless mouse.
It just means I was switched away (on the KVM) from this machine when X
started. I also tried it without switching away, the same thing happens.
I have intrepid on my powerbook now also, but it was working fine with
GDM. I think its likely a

This is what I did for the intitial report (on gutsy):

startx works fine, XDM works fine, GDM will not start X.
I don't see any significant differences between those results and these.

Well, even simpler, please do this:
1. switch to a tty (ctrl-alt-f3) and login
2. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
3. pkill X
At this point, you should have no gdm or X processes running.
Doublecheck this by running 'ps aux | grep X' and 'ps aux | grep gdm'.
Next, start up X by hand:
4. startx
Attached is my gdm.conf
How can I confirm (overwrite) this file to make sure its the proper
fresh installed config? I don't recall making any changes to it.
Thanks,

I upgraded to intrepid, and the same GDM issue exists.
Still happily using xdm for now.

I've installed the recent updates.
No change in GDM failure.
I've now configured XDM for gnome, and gnome seems to be working fine.
What is the best way to reset GDM configuration settings? I tried sudo
dpkg-reconfigure gdm, but gdm will still not start X. (XDM works fine).

So on a hunch I tried installing ol XDM.
xdm does appear to work, it starts X fine, provides a login window, and
allows a login.
I seem only to be able to log into xfce and not gnome.
So something is different about what GDM attempts to do and what XDM
does.

The machine has locked up solid twice in the last week.
ssh connections freeze and timeout, and the console keyboard does not
respond (no VT switching or any other feedback from keyboard input).
The logs show nothing, no errors. I checked the disk with smart, and it

I realized that once GDM is started that I can log into the machine via
XDMCP. Things seem to work the same as when using startx.
The missing menu and crashing applets made me wonder so I ran:

to reconfigure all packages with gnome

Any other suggestions for debugging? I believe I've supplied enough

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks Chris,
I think I've found the problem.
Looks like GDM is trying to run X with the nvidia driver and failing:
(EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not
found)
This is when using the xorg failsafe configuration.
So I tried using my nvidia xorg.
For each X
If the NVIDIA driver is not explicitly enabled in your xorg.conf, then
Xorg will not load it. That error you see is because there is no
compatible NVIDIA driver found (because it isn't loaded). Your Xorg log
file from the attempt when you ran with the NVIDIA driver shows that the
driver loading ok
Thanks Chris,
Here are the logs from /etc/init.d/gdm start (after stop) using the
reconfigured xorg file.
I've run this machine for most of its life with ACPI disabled, as it
seems to cause crashes with nvidia drivers.
If the ACPI was the problem, then startx should not work either.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help make Ubuntu
better. However, after having a quick look through your X server log
files, I can't see anything drastically wrong with your X server. Could
you please try to start GDM with your default configuration (when it
fails), and then
