Is this a typo?

According to the Handbook, /usr/local/bin/gnome-session
(without trailing 's') should be executed.

indeed a typo.
thank you.

after loggin in it just exits. no .xsession-errors is created. no idea
where to seek error messages at all.

Maybe errors are reported to the 1st virtual terminal
where the XDM process outputs its messages to (currently
not running xdm, so I can't check).

there are imho nowhere.

Do you have

        gdm_enable="YES"
        gnome_enable="YES"

in /etc/rc.conf, and /proc mounted, as suggested in the Handbook?
Maybe gdm has some "preparations" that aren't found by gnome-session
when started autonomously. But the Handbook says it works without

gdm is fine and works. the problem is that i wasn't able to my non-gnome .xsession work properly with gdm at all.

at the same time i like xdm and want to use, RARELY use it to run gnome.

Do you have any data about preparations that gdm do?
