fwiw, I've run into that before.  I ran passwd from a terminal, logged
out and tried to log back in via gdm, and gdm refused to recognise the
change.  The old password was still in effect!

I can't remember if simply waiting, or a re-boot, was required for gdm
to pick up on it.  It eventually did within a day (and figuring out
that it finally had was no fun either).  "dpkg -r [gkx]dm"!
