Further to post #24, since I'm already using gnome-shell as my primary DE, the workaround (more of an alternative than a workaround) I employed was to switch to gdm. $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
I lost the pretty login, but gained a working Lockscreen. Lockscreen was also failing to do anything when selected while logged in with lightdm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066410 Title: lightdm doesn't load correctly on Ubuntu 12.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1066410/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
