Actually there is a little more to that ...

You should start with GDM configuration
$ rpm -ql gdm
and look for /etc/gdm/... files.

Then get familiar with X and desktop environment config scripts in general
in /etc/X11/xinit/ .
Also check for file /etc/sysconfig/desktop , if any.

Fedora (Red Hat) docs are good source.

Perhaps you should consider starting in non-GUI environment first.
File to configure is /etc/inittab .
After getting to know the internals better you may (or not) return to starting
in GUI environment again.
