Public bug reported: 12.04 Beta 1 lightdm 1.1.7
Since a recent upgrade in lightdm is unable to login my Unity sessions. Actually my Unity sessions were also missing after this recent update. After installing ubuntu-desktop lightdm still is unable to log in. After entering my credentials it just cycles back to itself rather than booting the DE. I've worked around this by using gdm which I activated with 'sudo dkpg-reconfigure lightdm' and choosing gdm from the menu.
