I don't know how to use startx or activate gdm (I do have it installed),
rather than kdm.  However, I found something else.  During boot-up the
light is on, but if I hit the Num Lock key at this stage it gets turned
off for good; i.e. it can't be toggled back on.  This suggests it's a
kernel problem.  So maybe this bug should go to linux-image-2.6.20-1-amd64
or the headers package?
