This a good sign I guess. At least X is starting up. I am not too familiar with how gnome starts up since I don't use it but try starting gdm as a normal user. See how that goes. So when X starts what do you see after the typical X mouse. Have you tried running xclock? If that starts and you do see a clock then I guess its simply a gnome configuration issue. > I've had about enough of arch linux at this point and am so so close > to giving up.
