As I was successfully using xdm instead of lightdm in my KVM installation of Ubuntu-Mate-24.04 I removed lightdm from the system. I was surprised to see that arctic-greeter was also removed, not lightdm-greeter as I had assumed was being used by the system. Reinstalling lightdm with lightdm-gtk-greeter and lightdm-greeter-settings resulted in lightdm working exactly as expected so it seems that maybe it is the use of arctic-greeter that has been behind this situation of lightdm failure. Full details of this finding are reported in the thread at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2495023
Can lightdm-greeter be made the package used by default in place of the current arctic-greeter? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apparmor in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2052489 Title: Mate Daily Graphic Layer does not come up - apparmor denied snap desktop integration Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Noble Mate Daily 20230205 ISO Boots up past Splash to black screen.
