So you want to have gnome with gdm ?
Then edit /etc/inittab to start gdm http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Login_manager
then select gnome from gdm and start it. Also make sure you are running hal and dbus
by doing:
ls /var/deamons/run
Pro tip: did you configure X ?

Could you please rephrase this and say what you want.
Do you want your system to boot , show gdm , login and use gnome?
then use the /etc/inittab method and that should work.
If you are in gnome try restarting hal and if it gives an error , paste it here
