Tried it again: Instructed synaptic to completely remove gnome-session,
- and restarted the computer.
The result was again, that gdm hung itselves up as soon as i clicked on
my username, so the problem is reproducible at least on my computer.
ps -x |grep gdm reported while gdm was hanging:
{{{
1514 tty1 S+ 0:00 /usr/sbin/gdm-binary
1583 tty1 S+ 0:00 /usr/lib/gdm/gdm-simple-slave --display-id
/org/gnome/DisplayManager/Display1
1585 tty7 Ss+ 0:00 /usr/bin/X :0 -br -verbose -auth

1624 tty1 S+ 0:00 /usr/lib/gdm/gdm-session-worker
1865 tty4 S+ 0:00 grep gdm
}}}
restarted gdm, but this time didn't klick on my username but only kill
gdm and saved all logfiles this produced. Will attach them to this
comment as soon as I find out how.
