[Since failsafe-x was enabled in karmic it starts if gdm is disabled and
kdm is used. (low graphics mode error)]
Note: ran across this today while checking what the new gdm update was

2.28.1-0ubuntu2
Publishing details
* Published on 2009-11-30
Changelog
gdm (2.28.1-0ubuntu2) karmic-proposed; urgency=low
* Don't respawn gdm on failure; this lets us capture X failures
instead and
trigger the bulletproof X handler here. LP: #441638.
* re-export any XORGCONFIG value passed to the upstart job, needed to
complete integration with bulletproof X. LP: #474806.
