No information is presented to the user that would let them know the problem. This is because of an error in the way that lightdm writes to the ~/.Xauthority file in src/x-authority.c. It does check that each write() succeeds, but in the NFS case, the data isn't actually written by the client until fsync() is called; the status of that system call isn't checked so the quota problem is undetected. Calling fsync() is not necessary; the effect of committing the data to disk is implied by close(), which is done on the next line anyway.
