The above probably has nothing to do with the XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 problem. It looks like the kind of log one gets when one hasn't given the X server any clients to run. There are multiple reports of the X server working if you stop it, delete your $HOME/.Xauthority file, and run "startx". If startx still fails you are likely experiencing some other problem. For example, a $HOME/.xsession file with nothing in it but echo commands will generate a server log that looks much like the one you pasted. The X server starts, makes its usual noise (there were no fatal errors in the above), finds itself without a client to run, and gracefully exits. That message "waiting for X server to shut down" is what tells you that the X server is exiting normally. -- G.
