Public bug reported: The Xorg package seems to fail, causing a brief black screen before being returned to the login screen. Any information being worked on such as user level applications lose their data (root processes which are not based on xorg seem unaffected). Happens when loading into either Unity or Gnome 3.
Desktop manager is lightdm.
