Upgrading to Precise seems to have fixed the problem for me (nvidia- current 295.40-0ubuntu1, lightdm 1.2.1-0ubuntu1). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873495 Title: LightDM fails to start after nvidia-current or nvidia-current-updates are installed (upstart job issue) Status in Light Display Manager: New Status in NVIDIA Drivers Ubuntu: New Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “lightdm” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: Occurs reliably on fast Sandy Bridge hardware with a fast GPU - GTX 485M, GTX 560M or GTX 580M.

Does not seem to be restricted to OEM mode, I've got the same problem here for a regular Oneiric installation. (i5-2500K, GTX 560 Ti, nvidia- current 280.13-0ubuntu6.)
