If I'm not wrong you're using Mandrake. I've never used Mandrake but IIGC the 
last script to be executed in it is rc.local. But as you mentioned you've not 
messed with any init scripts at all.

So as you stated your problem, once gdm runs you're able to access the login 
screen. Check the gdm init script. It should be in "/etc/init.d/gdm". See if 
it has any abnormal behavioral which is not letting the login program to 
spawn.

As for your question on last init script. I'll assume that you're booting into 
runlevel 5. See the last/highest numbered script with 'S' prefixed. Something 
like S99gdm. The one is the last script to be executed with the exception of 
the "rc.local" script.

HTH,
