Title:
'Unable to create session' when logging in to a newly created user
Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Similar but not the same as 1056833.
After creating a new user I was unable to login to her id from
lightdm. I could login on a text console and then run startx.
I think the problem is that /var/lib/AccountService/user/$user had
Xsession=ubuntu instead of xfce. I do not have any Unity code on my
machine.
There is no option in the create-user dialogue to select a session
type, not in the lightdm login screen.
I will do some more testing and report back when I have finished this
bug report.
