Public bug reported:
I've installed Oneiric beta2 and at some point installed and purged gdm.
After that, boot will hang waiting for lightdm to start, which never
happens. This is because /etc/X11/default-display-manager ends up saying
"lightdm" whereas /etc/init/lightdm.conf accepts "/usr/bin/lightdm" or
"/usr/sbin/lightdm". The user sees the splash screen messages "Waiting
for up to 60 more seconds for network configuration" and "Booting system
without full network configuration".
However, the fix is to edit the contents of /etc/X11/default-display-
manager to read "/usr/sbin/lightdm".
