I get thrown at VT7 with its startup messages, and when trying to restart the lightdm service, eventually the following shows up in /var/log/Xorg.0.log: Cannot open virtual console 7 (Input/output error) Using GDM instead of Lightdm, "Log out" fails in the same manner, but I can restart gdm to get back at the login screen. There appears to be something broken in the logout or respawn process that gdm can handle (better), but lightdm cannot (even when being restarted).
