Edit your /etc/rc.conf and make sure that you have this set

DISPLAYMANAGER="gdm"
XSESSION="GNOME"

And then do rc-update add xdm boot.

OR

You can do it in this half assed way, edit /etc/conf.d/local.start and simply add gdm to it.

# /etc/conf.d/local.start:
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/local.start,v 1.4 2002/11/18 19:39:22 azarah Exp $

# This is a good place to load any misc.
# programs on startup ( 1>&2 )

gdm
