Just a silly thought :
You wouldn't happen to be starting up as root would you ?
I'm on Mandriva but I see these sorts of messages when I start up a GUI
from Konsole and usually as root.
The only other thought is that you are somehow defaulting your startup
from the command line shell and
though everything looks OK otherwise, the console you are using could be
minimized or some such ?
From your console command prompt, try to start up something simple ( as
root ), like your favourite GUI text editor and see if you get simular
messages.
