Commenting out all FontPaths but these in /etc/xorg.conf

FontPath    "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"                                                  
FontPath    "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"

allowed me to login again with gdm (no startx just yet).

I also changed the module path:
ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules"
