Is it actually crashing?  What signal is gnome-session exiting on?=20
sobomax found that without scalable fonts installed, GNOME 2 crashed all
over the place.  Make sure you have all the X fonts installed, and that
all the font types are loaded in your XF86Config file.

This seems to be a popular complaint.  I never encountered it since I
always start gdm from an rc script from /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d.  A new
GNOME 2 snapshot is out, and I will be working on the update.  Perhaps
the new gdm2 will alleviate this problem.
