Have you installed xorg?
pacman -Qo /usr/bin/X /usr/bin/X is owned by xorg-server 1.11.2-2
Oops :D
thank you :), at least xorg.xinit already was installed, but the server and driver were not installed. Now X and GDM are running. Using the proprietary nvidia driver, regarding to X everything is ok now.
why do i think you used nvidia installer instead of doing pacman -S nvidia ?
GDM still needs some tweak, since I can't log in as root and GNOME already is listed, but currently only Xfce4 is installed.
maybe you should start thinking about it. Is not working because is wrong to use root as your primary account, especially in graphics. If you really want, since is your system and I don't care what are you doing, check /etc/pam.d/gdm-password auth sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet
It's not important that root doesn't work, I don't need it. I only wanted to test it, but next thing I'll do is too add the user.
I'll have a meal first ;).

PS: Hm? IIUC it already should work for root.
cat /media/archlinux/etc/gdm/custom.conf # GDM configuration storage
