I came into this bug report from my personal report #583660, which seems to be quite similar, or maybe a duplicate.
Today I tried to add "GdmXserverTimeout=60" into the "[daemon]" section of /etc/gdm/custom.conf. From that moment on, gdm won't start anymore nor at boot nor at command line (sudo start gdm). Then I needed to remove that configuration line to get gdm work again (only from the command line). I found into my log files the same error as above You reported: (EE) Jun 22 14:43:47 NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. Please see the (EE) Jun 22 14:43:47 NVIDIA(0): system's kernel log for additional error messages and (EE) Jun 22 14:43:47 NVIDIA(0): consult the NVIDIA README for details. (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting *** (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration But when I run GDM from command line, no error is issued. Today, the automatic check of disks performed a chkdsk routine at the boot. After this event, GDM started automatically as one should expect. I hope this will help You. (Should I mark my bug #583660 as duplicate of this bug #532436 ???)
