Hello,
if /etc/init.d/gdm start works for you
THEN
check file /etc/inittab.
This file lets you specify the runlevel that you want to boot in.
mine is id:2:initdefault:
the gdm (gnome desktop) runs in this runlevel
In /etc/rc2.d/
you should have a file S30gdm . Notice the "S". It shouldnt be S.
ELSE
you need to install kde/gnome .
Code:
apt-get install gnome 
apt-get install kde

and then have a file
~/xinitrc
there add
Code:
exec startkde #for kde at startup 
exec gnome #for gnome at startup
