What exactly happens: In GDM, when uninstalling it sets /etc/X11/default-display-manager to the first available display manager *package name*. It should set it to the full path to the display manager executable.
In LightDM, when uninstalling it doesn't change /etc/X11/default- display-manager, so it is set to "/usr/sbin/lightdm" which is no longer installed. It should set it to the full path to the first available display manager executable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864174 Title: boot hangs waiting for lightdm after purging gdm (wrong default- display-manager) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/864174/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
