Please send some more detailed error output.  I only use (the
recommended) xdm.  You might want to try that to see if it has the
same problem.  If so, zero the file /var/lib/xdm/xdm-errors, then
cause the problem, then show it to us.

If you have the gpm package installed, make sure to 

      Either 1) remove /etc/init.d/gpm  OR
	     2) change the following in that file:

  start)
     echo "Starting gpm"
     /usr/bin/gpm -t $TYPE
     ;;

Change to make:  make it "/usr/bin/gpm -R -t $TYPE"
