I've run into this login loop on my z61m Thinkpad with ATI Radeon card. 
The workaround by logging into tty, stopping gdm and then using startx gets me into X

After creating a new user and restarting gdm, I noticed that the logon
works for the new user, but not for my own account which was working
fine before upgrading from Karmic (64 bit).

To me this indicates a problem with saved preferences, but I'm not sure
which .xxxxxx directories (or individual files) I need to delete/modify
to get my account to work again.
