First thing: XDM is NOT a window manager. It's a display
manager, which manages authentication and commands run by the user who
is logging in through it.

To use GNOME, edit a file named .xsession in your hoe
directory, containind the following line:
exec gnome-session
Do NOT put a ampersand in the end of the line, it will screw
up the things. If you want to run any command using the .xsession
file, making it execute every time you log in onto the X session
(using either XDM or startx), put if BEFORE the above mentioned, and
WITH an ampersand at the end if the line. Like this:
------------
# .xsession example file
# created by johndoe @ 22may2001-22:30 (GMT-3)
xscreensaver -lock &
Eterm -O --tint blue --shade 50% &
exec gnome-session
# EOF

In fact you are maybe still using XDM. To use GDM, which is
GNOME's display manager, you must uninstall XDM and install GDM,
because they conflict with each other.
