Is there any error in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, before you start xdm manually? |

Watch during boot which services are being started after xdm, maybe xdm |
| 19 |
depends on something that is not available yet. You could add the needed |
| 20 |
service to the depend() function in /etc/init.d/xdm in this case. |
