This particular issue may be a bug in gdm3, not the X server. (If the X
server wasn't starting, you generally wouldn't see any output at all.)

Someone else may be able to give you more information on how you can
debug this problem in gdm3.

I did not mention yet that I tried lightdm/xfce4 - and it failed, too. You should assign the bug additionally to lightdm.
Kind regards, Jürgen
