I haven't tried GDM yet but I like the idea of a GUI login screen for pdaXrom. Good work so far Chero!
A couple of thoughts/ideas:
1. To get to the text console you should just be able to switch virtual terminals, e.g. execute "chvt 1". To get back to X use Fn-rightarrow.
(However I just tested his on beta1 and when I tried to switch back to X it just hung and when I ssh'd into my Zaurus and ran "chvt 1" it caused X to crash but the screen contents didn't change until I ran "startx" again. I assume this is a bug in TinyX.)
2. My personal opinion is that starting the display manager from inittab is ugly and hard to manage. I prefer the method I first saw in Debian where the DM is just started from a normal init script. This makes it way easier to start and stop the DM and you don't have to edit inittab or muck around with runlevels just to disable X on boot.
Just my 2c.

Seems like a good idea to start gdm from a normal init-script. Never thought about doing it that way. Thanks for the tip.
If you want to try - play around, maybe try xdm first, it comes installed by default.
