Package: lightdm
Version: 0.9.2-3
Severity: normal
If I leave the selector at the default session and log in, lightdm seems
to just exit X entirely, leaving me at a black console screen with a
cursor. According to ps, lightdm is running, but has no children; no X
server is running.
If I select xfce session, it logs me in ok.
joey@gnu:~>sudo update-alternatives --config x-session-manager
There are 6 choices for the alternative x-session-manager (providing
/usr/bin/x-session-manager).
