Actually thats not really the case.

The most likely case is that there's something, hardware wise, missing
that X needs, that isn't encoded in the events that trigger lightdm
to start.

We'll need full X logs to determine that for sure, but thats what I
suspect.  Its possible that udev events are being emitted for devices
that aren't 100% ready, or that there are more events that need to be
blocked on.
