(Get the code!)
I'm seeing something similar, I think, in gutsy. After recent xorg updates, I can't login with any user via either GDM or KDM, except the two failsafe options. I enter the user/pass, and get just the busy cursor. If I login to the failsafe terminal, I can run kdestart or whatever and that works. In my .xsession-errors file, I see a lot of references as follows:
[debug log]
max lines = 1000
Checking for nVidia: present.

GDM logs don't show anything unusual, nor does the messages file. It should also be noted that I do not have desktop effects enabled. Nor am I using compiz/beryl.
