Yes. I Have fixed the problem for by doing the following things:
(1) Disable starting gdm from /etc/rc.conf
(2) Rewriting the start script into the old startup style
(3) renaming /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d/gdm.sh to
/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d/xxxxxserver.sh
This solved the problem with gdm that I have since FBSD 5.3 stable
Best regards
