I guess problem with starting up lightdm after plymouth is in
misconfiguration.
$ cat /etc/init/lightdm.conf
... SKIPPED ...
script
if [ -n "$UPSTART_EVENTS" ]
then
[ ! -f /etc/X11/default-display-manager -o "$(cat
/etc/X11/default-display-manager 2>/dev/null)" = "/usr/bin/lightdm" -o "$(cat
/etc/X11/default-display-manager 2>/dev/null)" = "/usr/sbin/lightdm" ] || {
stop; exit 0; }
if [ "$RUNLEVEL" = S -o "$RUNLEVEL" = 1 ]
then
# Single-user mode
plymouth quit || :
exit 0
fi
fi
exec lightdm
end script
... SKIPPED ...
It checks if there is "/usr/bin/lightdm" or "/usr/sbin/lightdm" in
/etc/X11/default-display-manager, but in my case it's "lightdm" in that file:
$ cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
lightdm
