So to summarize, the only problem is that stopping lightdm does not
change the VT back to 1 or 2 or something sensible, but stays at 7 where
no getty ("login:") is running so it might *appear* crashed?-- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1603151 Title: stopping lightdm ends up in an empty console, should switch to VT1 Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: On Ubuntu 16.04 Cinammon, systemctl isolate multi-user.target hangs the system. I've tried editing the multi-user.target file as a snippet, or the whole thing, but with no fix. The system flashes a very momentary prompt to login as a single user without a GUI, but then the screen goes black and the system is hung. Same on Linux Mint 18. systemctl isolate multi-user.target works successfully on OpenSuse Leap 42.1, and CentOS 7, as I tested the command on these other systems to check. The glaring difference I noticed is that in the multi-user.target unit file, AllowIsolate and CanIsolate is set to yes in the other Linux systems, but to no in Ubuntu.
