That value just tells gdm how long to wait for X to start up before
deciding that X has hung, to kill it and try starting it again. So my
guess is that if the machine is slow:
1. X takes longer to start than GdmXserverTimeout allows, because other
background processes started during boot are
Current value is 30.
Will increasing it to 60 increase start-up time?

Autologin works...mostly.
If I shut down the computer using Power button (not long press, just press and
quick release), the "Welcome to GNOME" screen appers.
Any other shutdown method (including Reset and "accidental" loss of power by
disconnecting power cord) - works.
What else can
Yes, value 30 probably helped.
Maybe that's because the computer experiencing troubles has integrated SiS
chipset and video card and I know that SiS chips are very slow.
