Try

rc-update del xdm default
rc-update add gdm default

This will change your logon manager to gdm

Probably an obvious question but for the life of me I can't figure out how
to make xdm show the gdm login window at boot.

To explain when I set "rc-update add xdm default" the login window is
different to the one shown when I run gdm at the commandline.

I prefer the gdm login window. My wife is Italian and sometimes she prefers
to work off the desktop in Italian, and other times in English. The gdm
window allows her to easily switch between languages

Thanks, Richard
