xgl starting - but theres a gdm error


when i am starting an Xgl session over gdm, its loading flawlessly (along with compiz + gnome-session).
The problem is that gdm thinks that it failed, giving me an error like "Your session didnt last longer than 10 seconds.". This error message is annoying, as it is on display :0 over xgl which is running on :1.
the xsession-error file just tells me that there are some fonts missing, which is nothing serious.

is there a way to get rid of (or suppress?) this senseless error message?

(start-script invoked by gdm:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
Xgl :1 -ac -fullscreen -accel xv -accel glx:pbuffer & sleep 2
DISPLAY=:1
exec startcompiz.sh &
exec gnome-session &
)
