Well, I updated to 2.2 today, and while I was still in the gnome 
desktop, it seemed to fix the anti-aliasing issues I was having.  
However, I restarted, and now I get this:

Feb 11 00:51:32 lilbuddy gdm[24662]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal 
X error - Restarting :0
Feb 11 00:51:34 lilbuddy gdm[24666]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal 
X error - Restarting :0
Feb 11 00:51:39 lilbuddy gdm[24670]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal 
X error - Restarting :0
Feb 11 00:51:44 lilbuddy gdm[24674]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal 
X error - Restarting :0
Feb 11 00:51:44 lilbuddy gdm[24661]: Failed to start X server several 
times in a short time period; disabling display :0

I've seen this before, of course.  gdm is starting from 
/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d/gdm.sh, so that's not it.

I removed the font-related alterations I made recently, that's not it.

How do I figure out what's causing gdm to hang?
