They are presented a black screen with a cursor. [Test Case] 1. Install the Unity8 desktop preview in LXC package (currently in a PPA here: https://code.launchpad.net/~unity8-desktop-session-team/+archive/ubuntu/unity8-preview-lxc) alongside the unity8-desktop-session-mir package in Universe. Setup the Unity8 desktop preview in LXC as shown in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8inLXC#Setting_up_the_Unity_8_Desktop_Preview_LXC 2. Log in to the "Unity8 Mir in LXC" session from LightDM. The Unity8 desktop preview will load. [Regression potential] Non observed. Original Description: It would be desirable to allow both the Unity 8 desktop preview session from the archive and the Unity 8 desktop preview in the LXC to be installed at the same time. Currently, the Unity 8 desktop preview in LXC conflicts the "bare metal" Unity 8 desktop preview session.
