I checked /etc/X11/gdm/Xsession...

If $HOME/.xsession exists try to remove it (change name / make  
non-executable) and restart gdm, then if no session manager specified it  
should use /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

You can make $HOME/.xsession a link to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc too...

I hope it will help... :-)
