gnome-initial-setup seems to be getting run if gdm is active (as opposed

settings key to keep this from happening?
I can switch back to kdm for normal use, but I wanted to test using
llvmpipe for gdm.

The service 'touches' a file in /var somewhere, if you look at it. I figure that it only runs if that file exists, and it's supposed to be wiped after one run. If it's not getting wiped in your case for some reason, try wiping it manually.

Thanks. That should be enough to help me find it.

I haven't run completely through it because I didn't want to create new accounts. Also I had been using gnome on these machines until fallback mode was dropped, so it's not like it made sense to even run gnome-initial-setup. It probably also doesn't make sense to run that if you are using gdm but don't want to use gnome (right away). There should be a way to bypass it. It would seem to me it would make more sense for it to run the first time you login to a gnome session, not the first time you boot a machine.
