Title:
lightdm fails to bring up X display automatically after boot
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I recently installed Xubuntu 12.04 alpha2 and have updated it
equivalent to beta1. The X display does not automatically bring up a
login screen. What I currently have to do is to get a login (using
Alt-F2 or Alt-F1), login as root, then run lightdm from the bash
command line, which brings up a login, and I can login with my user
ID, after which X appears to run normally with Xfce etc.

This problem doesn't seem to depend on whether I have an xorg.conf
file in /etc/X11
I have appended a gzip file which includes Xorg.0.* at various
stages, my xorg.conf file, and dmesg output.
