** Description changed:

  Doing some tweaks on that yakkety 64 bits running gnome-shell powered by
  nvidia-370 driver, i've discovered that issue.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  - on the initial working session, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" and 
select/validate gdm3
  - close the session and reboot
  - as a result, X fails to start/load
  - switched to ctrl+alt+F2 and reconfigure again to choose back lightdm, and 
reboot
  - that time X start as expected
+ 
+ Could it be related to the lightdm/accountservice relationship, not identical 
in the case of gdm3 choice ?
