Hi, thanks, sorry i forgot to say that when i start gdm with sudo gdm 
manuall it works!

So ... i guess we have to look at gdm itself

i thought it might be gdms conffile, heres mine without the comments, i 
believe its the original one from the debs :

[servers]
0=Standard

[server-Standard]
name=Standard server
command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -br -audit 0
flexible=true
