Try to use a delay option in rc.local , like below two lines. (sleep 3; service lightdm stop) & (sleep 2; service lightdm start) & No sudo is needed here , as rc.local is executed always as root. The ampersand symbol is not actually needed, but it helps sometimes. The restart option in lightdm is a "painful" for the system method. It would be better to use the commands above to stop and then start it again.
