Did you try startx from the console? Also: It might be an idea, given
you have network connection running, to install an alternative login
manager like slim, eg.

        sudo apt-get install slim

Then, in case lightdm is installed but somehow broken, you would be
prompted with a question which login manager you prefer. Choose slim and
see what happens.

Otherwise, try from the console

        dpkg-reconfigure lightdm

Good luck!
