Really weird ...
To find out what was happening, I didn't login through gdm immediately, went to a terminal using Ctrl-Alt-F1 and
typed strace -f -p 4211 -o new [ 4211 was the pid of gdmgreeter]

Came back to gdm and logged in , and it went in !!

I don't have a clue as to how this could happen ....

Thanks for your bug report. Is it possible for you to log into your system normally now, or do you have to perform an strace every time? Thanks in advance.

I am able to log into my machine without any problems now.
I tried to reproduce the problem by restarting my laptop many times and yes, it happened again once.
And I noticed that the audio clip that plays as soon as gdm is loaded was in a loop, kept playing forever. [ aplay ? ]

I will try to post more info if I encounter the problem again.

thanks,
Sujith.

Okay, I found out what was causing the problem.
esd was stuck and once i killed it, login resumed normally.
I was able to reproduce this twice - each time esd was stuck.
An strace on it showed it had stopped on poll().
