Title:
  Lightdm will not start after latest 15.04 updates, works with upstart

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  lightdm fails to start on several Lenovo thinkpads (X240, X201, X300,
  T410...) after the latest round of 15.04 beta updates on 20/03/15. The
  system boots into low graphics mode, but the only working option from
  this is the console login.

  If the laptops are started using upstart from the "advanced" boot
  options, lightdm starts as normal on all the affected laptops.

  All had been working with systemd running 15.04 beta after earlier
  upgrades from 14.10 before yesterday's updates.

  A Thinkpad T430s is still starting lightdm as normal (i.e. with a
  systemd startup) after the updates.

  gdm will start up OK on the affected machines under systemd. The
  laptops in question have lightdm, gdm and sddm installed with lightdm
  as the original default.
