Everything went well until I restarted my server. I then notice when I load into the OS and the part where Gnome loads up and then shows a login screen.

What can I do to figure out the issue? what commands should I try?
I switched the mode to use terminal. So, in the terminal I notice error messages. It talks about GDM-Simple-Greeter this had regular expression errors.
How would I fix that?
How can I switch from Gnome2 to the light version?
