Hi,
gdm not starting.

In small steps:

thx. I did
    echo plain > /etc/vservers/<vservername>/apps/init/style
and ubuntu starts. I moved some other scripts in /etc/init.d/ and /etc/init/,
did some other stuff like mentioned in
 http://wiki.raceme.org/dokuwiki/tof:computer:vserver:upstart_ubuntu_lucid
and I can enter ubuntu.

rex5:~# vserver xubu1004 enter
root@xubuntu104:/#

Now I want to start gdm to log in:

root@xubuntu104:/etc# service gdm start
gdm start/running, process 10097

root@xubuntu104:/etc# ps ax | grep gdm
10211 ? Ss 0:00 /bin/bash /etc/gdm/failsafeXServer
10226 ? S 0:00 xinit /etc/gdm/failsafeXinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe -- /usr/bin/X -br -once -config
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe -logfile /var/log/Xorg.failsafe.log
10232 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto gdm

is gdm running?
After about 20 seconds the gdm disappears automatically from process list:

root@xubuntu104:/etc# ps ax | grep gdm
10236 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto gdm

root@xubuntu104:/# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe
Section "Device"
        Identifier "Configured Video Device"
        Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Default Screen"
        Monitor "Configured Monitor"
        Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

/etc/gdm/custom.conf:
=====================
[daemon]
DefaultSession=xubuntu

[xdmcp]
Enable=true
DisplaysPerHost=5
Port=177

[security]
DisallowTCP=false
[debug]
Enable=true

[greeter]
IncludeAll=true

Why is X starting? Can I tell gdm somewhere not to start X? xinit seems to do that.
On SuSE systems there a option that kdm should not start X. Where is the option here?
Or some complication with vserver?

thx
Eckard
