You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Sometimes, then I boot up my computer LightDM fails to start, and I just
get a a black screen.

I then have to press  CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to a TTY (terminal) and run
"sudo service lightdm restart then lightdm starts up just fine, this
happens quite rarely.

I have had lots of people looking at my logfiles on the official #ubuntu
channel on IRC, but none have been able to give me a working solution I
also posted my issue on Ubuntuforums, no one seems a to have any ideas.

I have tried the following without any result:

* Tried to reconfigure LightDM and unity-greeter with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure 
lightdm" and sudo dpkg-reconfigure unity-greeter.
*    Updating my Nvidia drivers with this ppa: 
http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu
*    Asked on #Ubuntu (offiicial Ubuntu channel of course) and got the advices 
above.
*   Tried Googing around a bit, and searched this forum as well of course. 
I uploaded my logfiles here:
