When I run the following command:
$ sudo service lightdm restart
on a system which has lightdm (installed, in use) and xdm (installed,
not in use), I get an error message in TTY7:
"ot starting X display manager (xdm): it is not the default display
manager"
Expected lightdm to restart.
It's stuck there and I can either reboot at that point or press ctrl-
alt-f1, log in, and run the command again.
Removing xdm does not resolve the issue, as I get stuck on TTY7, but I
no longer see the error.
