For this kind of things it is best if you file a bug report, and when
asked by reportbug tell it to send a copy to
debian-bsd@lists.debian.org

The first question that comes to mind is: are you using squeeze or
wheezy/sid?  Default gdm3 setup should work on squeeze, but there are
known critical problems in wheezy/sid.  If you want a system for
production, and specially for desktop day-to-day usage, squeeze is
your best option.

If you're into development or want to help us by discovering and
reporting new bugs, then consider wheezy or sid.
