fresh install with ubuntu 9.10 and gdm-2.20 and getting errors in:
syslog:
http://www.multiseatcomputer.be/syslog
look at the xserver not found garbage:
Oct 23 15:10:41 ubu-desktop gdm[1425]: DEBUG: gdm_server_spawn: 'À,
#001 -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp'
Oct 23 15:10:41 ubu-desktop gdm[1425]: WARNING: gdm_server_spawn: X-server 
niet gevonden: À,#001 -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp

same error in /var/log/gdm:
http://www.multiseatcomputer.be/gdm0.log

ofcourse with gdm 2.18 no problems.
