Did you see any errors when you booted without "quiet splash"?

Sounds like a problem with gdm, not xorg, from what you're saying (since 
"startx" works but "sudo service gdm start" doesn't). A few more things just to 
make sure:
1) Replace "quiet splash" with "nomodeset".
2) Replace "quiet splash" with "xforcevesa".
