Title:
lightdm (or greeter) only gives a blank screen instead of a login
screen.
Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Xubuntu 14.04, when the machine starts up, I don't get a login screen, just a
black screen. ctrl-alt-f1 works, and if I stop lightdm
$ sudo service lightdm stop
nand start gdm
$ sudo service gdm start
I can login as normal.
Things I've tried, without success:
- reinstalling lightdm
- changing alternatives (via update-alternatives)
Before this upgrade, the machine ran Xubuntu 12.04 lts, without problems.
The machine is an Asus U35jc laptop, it has hybrid graphics (nVidia Optimus),
but I am only using the open drivers (I don't use the dedicated graphics card,
in Xubuntu 12.04 I just switched it off to save battery).
