In my opinion proper patch to lightdm.upstart should be to replace: [ ! -f /etc/X11/default-display-manager -o $(cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 2/dev/null) = /usr/bin/lightdm -o $(cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 2/dev/null) = /usr/sbin/lightdm ] || { stop; exit 0; } with: [ ! -f /etc/X11/default-display-manager -o $(echo $(basename $(cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 2/dev/null))) = lightdm ] || { stop; exit 0; } -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/828576 Title: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/828576/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 828576] Re: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10
I guess problem with starting up lightdm after plymouth is in misconfiguration. $ cat /etc/init/lightdm.conf ... SKIPPED ... script if [ -n $UPSTART_EVENTS ] then [ ! -f /etc/X11/default-display-manager -o $(cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 2/dev/null) = /usr/bin/lightdm -o $(cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 2/dev/null) = /usr/sbin/lightdm ] || { stop; exit 0; } if [ $RUNLEVEL = S -o $RUNLEVEL = 1 ] then # Single-user mode plymouth quit || : exit 0 fi fi exec lightdm end script ... SKIPPED ... It checks if there is /usr/bin/lightdm or /usr/sbin/lightdm in /etc/X11/default-display-manager, but in my case it's lightdm in that file: $ cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager lightdm -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/828576 Title: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/828576/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 828576] Re: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10
There is more annoying to tell about this: I also upgraded from natty to oneiric. My system with nvidia-current (280.13) even won't login, if i use lightdm. During the installation process, i had been asked which manager to use. I'd chosen lightdm. That left me with an unusable system, because the xserver went into an infinite loop. Only if i switch to use gdm (dpkg- reconfigure lightdm), xserver starts.

[Bug 828576] Re: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10
I think we do want this to occur if possible: - ubuntu-desktop should depend on unity-greeter and so lightdm should be installed - lightdm should be the default display manager and the user shouldn't be prompted - the only setting that needs to be migrated is the default user. Talked with Didier in Berlin about how to do this. ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/828576 Title: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/828576/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

is that a bug? there is no configuration migration between those dms not feature parity, should user forced on a stock dm config which might not match their needs? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/828576 Title: Light-DM not used after upgrade 11.04→11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/828576/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
