   No idea if this is your solution: one of our users reported that gdm
never ran after they came back from lunch. Tracked it down to 2 files
missing in /etc/gtk-2.0: gdk-pixbuf.loaders and gtk-immodules. When I
copied those 2 files from another, working, system; everything was fine.
The error message was very similar to what you're showing above.
