or maybe not. I did: hagai@BRUCE:~$ cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager /usr/sbin/lightdm

One of the users has the admin privileges (able to sudo) and the rest are regular users. When logging in from a regular user, I am able to switch to a different user. When logging in from the admin user, after clicking the "switch user", the screen goes black (as if in screen saver) and then when I move the mouse, the screen returns to a "lock screen" screen (where I need to put the password for the admin user). If I try then to press the "switch user" button, the same things happens. After entering the password, I see a pop up window on the desktop: "Failed to unlock: The name org.gnome.DisplayManager was not provided by any .service files" The only way to login as a different user is first log out as the admin, then login as a different user. I tried the following: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop but the problem persists. Please let me know what other data you require and I'll attach it.
