I've just faced this problem (removing .Xauthority solved it). I've tested again with an invalid .Xauthority, and the login failed. I then installed the proposed lightdm version (1.6.0-0ubuntu4) and restarted the service. Tried to login again, and it seemed to work!
It's probably better for someone else to verify this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1234400 Title: Cannot log in users if their Xauthority file is corrupt.
