In the /etc/init/lightdm.conf I've changed exec lightdm

Hmmm, I wonder if writing debug information as slowed things down just enough to avoid a race condition inside the lightdm binary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/969489 Title: lightdm tries (and fails) to start too early?
