When gdm starts it errors out because it cannot find any schemas causing both wayland and x11 to fail. The gdm user is a member of gdm and video. The gdm user has access to /usr/share/gdm where the gdm schema is saved. sudo -u gsettings list-schemas yields nothing but many schemas are compiled and registered.
Please include emerge --info and any output you get from gdm in a terminal (or syslog or journal).
Every time I try to start gdm I get the following errors: Nov 17 17:46:21 harrisl-desktop /usr/libexec/gdm-wayland-session[3558]: No schemas installed Nov 17 17:46:21 harrisl-desktop gnome-session[3557]: gnome-session-binary[3557]: GLib-GIO-ERROR: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system Nov 17 17:46:21 harrisl-desktop gnome-session[3557]: aborting...
