The xdm log file has even less information than the .xsession-errors file. In other words the .xsession-errors has the same info as xdm.log and includes the information I have already posted from it. I am fighting cold cold right now and have grown weary of trying to get this xdm login working. I greatly appreciate all of the responses and pointers everyone has provided. However, for now I am going back to the text console login and typing startx. It's just one less battle for right now. I will pick back up on it later.
