Title:
Unable to log in because of "missing" unity-greeter
Status in Light Display Manager:
New
Bug description:
I'm not quite sure if the title is right because unity-greeter is
there but the interface doesn't appear sometimes.
Basically, I press the power button on my Samsung Series 9 notebook,
get a short purple flash and then a black screen with a cursor
blinking in the top left part of the screen and a moveable mouse
cursor.
The FN keys all seem to work and the drums welcome sound is audible as
well.
Roughly I'd say that I need 5 to 6 attempts to boot. I've seen some
very weird log messages in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log
Added logs to bug report.
It seems like it would try to automatically authenticate but fails. It
shouldn't try to auto-login though.
