I think I also have this bug, or similar, after an apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade from Lucid B1 to B2.
When I get to GDM, everything works perfectly, I can switch to a console, and login as normal. But if I click on a username in GDM to login, it freezes for a second or two, the screen turns black, and it appears as if GDM has restarted itself. Everything works as it should from a failsafe X session, which is where I attach these from. If I should attach anything else, let me know please. My graphics card is an Nvidia GeForce4 MX440 [AGP] using the Nvidia-96 driver.
