I don't have any error in the console. Just log in as pzhang, then I
actually enter as root account. The way I start gdm is to edit
/etc/ttys, i.e. modify it to
ttyv8 "/usr/X11R6/bin/gdm -nodaemon" xterm on secure
And as I mentioned before, I don't have this problem when I manually run
gdm as root after booting. I will try your way to see if it will work.
Thanks!
