I will add that on my machine *most of the times* lightdm doesn't start
by itself, but *sometimes* it does...

Title:
Quantal Beta 1 fresh install : No lightdm graphical login
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
After a fresh install of Quantal Beta 1, I notice the following
behaviour on a machine with ATI RS482 [Radeon Xpress 200M] :
- Booting in black : no plymouth graphical, nor text.
- A "graphical" mouse cursor shortly shows up, then disappears / the
system then sits there on a "text" screen showing a couple diag lines
corresponding to the boot process (but unrelated to login or X or
lightdm... probably just some of the latest boot text messages,
i.e."ACPI Battery blah-blah..")
- [Alt]-[Ctrl]-[F1] brings a text console with proper login capability
# sudo lightdm start ... starts lightdm and GUI properly, allowing
graphical boot into Unity
....Next reboot gives the same absence of "spontaneous" lightdm
startup...
=> Applying all latest updates as of 2012/09/21 brings no improvement
on this respect.
