This was fixed in lightdm 1.3.3. I can confirm that w and who both
display the correct X display number so this information is in the utmp
database. Higher level problems about not being able to start a program
on that display need to be tracked elsewhere.

Bug description:
Impact:
utmp records generated by LightDM do not have the X display address in the
ut_host field.
Test Case:
- log into a desktop session
- run "w" and see if there is a display associated with the session
- should work with the update
Regression potential:
The utmp,wtmp records could be wrong

utmp records generated by LightDM do not have the X display address in the
ut_host field. It is not documented that this field should be used in this
way, but this is what GDM does.
