Public bug reported:
I have a laptop with a small screen, and a large monitor that I use
while at home. If I plug in the monitor from boot and close the laptop
lid, I'll see the entire boot process on the large monitor; however,
when lightdm fires up, it displays the login widgetry on the (closed)
laptop monitor.
It should be enhanced to detect that the primary monitor is not active,
and display on the secondary monitor if this is the case.
