hmm, but if you are run startx from the console, the file should be there.
Do you have the gdm config file?

Many times.
I removed and reinstalled KDE, Gnome , X Window System, and GDM multiple times, each time thinking a config file or something required would auto magically appear.
Funny thing is, last night I boot up again....and it worked!
It seemed like the final solution was remove and install gdm for a second time in a row, reboot, get frustrated, whine on the Fedore forums, shutdown, wait 20 hours, startup and voila!
I've been told that removing and re-installing things isn't the linux way, but there is a big disconnect between the peopel with the knowledge on how to fix things the "correct" way, and the rest of us. (and the people on the Fedora forum told me to give up and re-install FC6, so I question the resources available to the average Linux "noob")
