It seems it's an issue with X, not necessarily with your login manager.
- Check what X logged in /var/log/Xorg.0.log - PLEASE dont paste the lot in
here blindly - errors / problems are usually clearly marked. Send those here
for help.
- Disable all login managers (gdm,etc), then start X by itself (startx) - it
may start gnome, or maybe twm. if it doesn't, it would most definitely point to
- did you upgrade to Xorg 7.2 recently? did you follow the upgrade process to a
successful completion?

Yes, this was an X/xorg issue. There were logs in /var/log/gdm
that pointed to /etc/X11/xorg.conf; but the errors weren't
traceable. I created a new /root/xorg.conf.new and launched X.
(twm) There was a substantially longer list of stderrs from
X -configure. I'm still tracing these.
