Same here. I have a Dell Vostro A90 with a Minimal KDE install, and lightdm as the DM, running 13.04 daily updates . It is set up to autologin. In thefin last couple days, upon reboot, the computer comes to a command line login. You can login, and then run "sudo lightdm", or "sudo service lightdm start". In both cases it works just fine. I suspect upstart is not running lightdm anymore, and this seems a regression.
I'll play with BUM if I have some time, to confirm.
