But many questions remain unanswered.
The main opposition party has shown little willingness to join the unity government, with Samaras making it clear he did not want to be part of a coalition.
In forming the new government, the PASOK party will likely seek the support of smaller parties.
Samaras has called for a transitional government for six weeks, followed by elections.
"We need to have an agreement during the course of today for a new coalition government, and we need to specify by tomorrow, Monday, the name of the new prime minister," PASOK spokesman Elias Mosialos told Greek television Sunday.
Both of the big parties, PASOK and New Democracy, should participate in the coalition government, he said, and if that is successful, then smaller parties could join as well. ...
Though Papandreou won the confidence vote after announcing he would seek a coalition government, it was not immediately clear who would lead it.
Venizelos has called for a temporary government that would push through all the necessary legislation through February with elections likely to follow.
Papandreou said holding elections immediately would leave the latest bailout deal "up in the air."
Implementing the controversial bailout package reached October 26 is a priority, the prime minister said, to ensure Greece stayed in the euro, the single currency used by the 17 nations in the euro zone.
European leaders have warned they want Greece to stay in the euro, but saving the currency is more important.
The deal would wipe out 100 billion euros in Greek debt, half of what it owes. It comes with a promise of 30 billion euros from the public sector to help pay off some of the remaining debts, making the whole deal worth 130 billion euros ($178 billion).
But the package comes with strings that would require Greece to slash government jobs, privatize some businesses and reduce pensions.
Such austerity measures run the risk of deepening Greece's recession, said Antonis Papagiannidis, editor of Greece's Economic Review.
Though Greece ranks 32nd in terms of gross domestic product, experts say it wields a disproportionate influence on world markets.
