Title:
  Unable to login without logging into the terminal first

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Ok, it turns out removing the .dmrc file isn't the cause of my logins
  working:

  I removed it yesterday while I was logged in and shutdown my computer.
  Today I switched my computer on and the login screen, again, wouldn't
  let me in. I jumped into terminal to remove the .dmrc file, only to
  discover that it wasn't there. I went back to the login screen and
  this time it let me straight in.

  So it looks like simply logging into the terminal allows the login
  screen to work...

  
  OLD:
  After a recent dist-upgrade, I have been unable to login without first deleting the .dmrc file within my home directory.
