Title:
  Cannot pass additional command-line options to X server

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I am using LightDM 1.0.6-0ubuntu1.2 on Oneiric.

  I would like to pass the "-logdir /path/to/file" option to the X
  server. In the old days, I would edit a file like /etc/X11/Xserver and
  add the option in there. LightDM, however, constructs the X server
  invocation in C code, specifically in src/xserver-local.c (search for
  "nolisten" and you'll be in the thick of it).

  Many of the arguments passed to the X server relate to LightDM
  configuration parameters, so I'm not taking issue with the server
  options in C code. (In theory, this could prevent LightDM from
  supporting non-X.org X servers, but I don't think that's likely to be
  of much interest to anyone.) However, I would like there to be an
  additional LightDM config parameter that allows me to specify
  arbitrary options to tack on to the server invocation, as that would
  handily address my needs and otherwise serve as a good catch-all.
