had been functioning perfectly since upgrading to 16.04 nearly 10 months
ago, but it suddenly broke yesterday for no reason I can fathom. (Last
system action I had performed was to enable the system firewall - ufw.)

I am not entirely sure what corrected the problem, but here are all of
the steps I performed:
sudo apt-get install lightdm
sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
sudo systemctl enable lightdm.service
sudo reboot
rm -rf .cache/compizconfig-1
