Public bug reported:
Lightdm on Ubuntu 16.04, also with Ubuntu-Mate 16.04 and Xubuntu 16.04
but *not* with Lubuntu 16.04
When logging in via Other > root a popup is shown reading:
-- Error found when loading /root/.profile
-- mesg: ttyname failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
-- As result the session will not be configured correctly.
-- You should fix the problem as soon as feasible.
After pressing OK the session is started without problems.
Alternatively logging in via <Ctrl+Alt+F2> as root and issuing "startx
-- :1" succeeds without problems.
