Public bug reported:
I am filing this against upstart since it seems to affect both lightdm
and gdm.
Basically, if I run:
sudo service lightdm restart
then it will fail with an "X Server already on display 0" message (in
gdm logs)
It appears that upstart is respawning the DM before the current X
session has shutdown completely.
If I instead do
sudo service lightdm stop
<wait a few seconds>
sudo service lightdm start
it works perfectly.
This is 100% reproducible on my 12.10 VM and happens around 1:5 times on
my 12.10 installation on real machine.
