i had a look at the dependencies of gdm -- no, thanks.
the whole point of auto login is starting the wm without user interaction.
a fat, ugly beast like gdm is an overkill for that purpose -- a small init
script that does nothing but starting X and subsequently the wm is
absolutely sufficient.
since you installed gnome as well, that's probably of no interest to you
-- gdm should not add anything to gnome's dependencies.
