In addition I also do not see the gnome splash during login. Sometimes I get no desktop at all when trying to log in. Oddly, it seems to work every time if I perform the following steps:
At gdm login screen drop to shell and log in. I start up top just to watch what's going on
Alt-F7 and log in via gdm
Drop back to the shell I started and watch for NetworkManager, gnome-panel, nautilus, etc
Alt-F7 and my desktop is perfectly fine
If I do not use the above process I seem to have about a 50% chance of never getting a desktop at all and the whole machine seems to be locked with the exception of mouse movement. I can't drop to a shell, can't ssh in remotely, etc.
