Comment:
Others in that forum thread reproduced it in Breezy.

I just reproduced it in Dapper.
In Dapper, the behaviour is as follows:

Uncheck the check mark.  Warning dialog box pops up saying that you may lose data.
Click yes, and gdm shuts down immediately.
On a reboot, gdm starts up again.

However, this works:
Uncheck the check mark.  Warning dialog box pops up saying that you may lose data.
Click yes, and gdm shuts down immediately.
Log in, and type startx.  Go to services-admin.  Uncheck gdm again, click yes, and then click OK.  GDM is now disabled.  :)
