That looks like a driver/mesa or Xorg problem.
Which version of xserver-xorg-core and libgl1-mesa-dri do you have
installed.
I'm not quite sure which driver you use, i.e. xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu
or xserver-xorg-video-radeon. Maybe the X maintainers can chime in here.

What kind of hardware do you have?
Maybe this hardware needs firmware which is not installed.

On a cursory glance this doesn't look like a gdm problem per se.
