Title:
  rfe: .gvfs messes things up, please find a way not to use it

Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  in 12.04 server with xubuntu-desktop installed, a call to `df` as non-
  superuser user leads off with:

  df: `/var/lib/lightdm/.gvfs': Permission denied

  
  .gvfs as not-a-regular-file is enough of a pain in the neck messing up all of 
our automated rsync home directory backups, having it mess up `df` too 
effectively means lightdm is not suitable for use on a server which has a 
workstation frontend. And so we have to uninstall lightdm and use a less 
troublesome alternative, which is unfortunate.

  if there is any way to implement lightdm without .gvfs, please do it.
  (enough already, it needs to die)

  
  thanks a load,
  Hamish
  (slightly irked)
