It seems the system is hanging at:
`gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface toolkit-accessiblity'

Once I did a `killall gsettings' the ldap user logged in properly.

Title:
  LDAP user with automounted nfs homedir cannot login

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu (Oneiric, development branch) I followed two
  guides to setup LDAP authentication and automounting of home
  directories using autofs-ldap. This setup was working properly for
  older Ubuntu releases (just to be sure I also tried with a fresh, up
  to date 11.04 installation).

  The following steps were executed to setup LDAP authentication:
  https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html (section: LDAP Authentication)

  These steps were executed to setup Autofs-ldap:
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutofsLDAP

  LDAP users properly login from the terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F1), in that
  case they can browse their automounted homedirs etc.

  When I try to login using LightDM the user seems to be logged in
  properly; the login widget disappears from the screen but other than
  that nothing is happening (the login screen background is still
  visible, but the login widget is gone). I still can move the mouse
  pointer but the user is not logged on. When taking a look at the
  user's .xsession-errors file there is not much to see, nothing that
  seems worrying to me. I can't find anything that obviously looks like
  an error in /var/log/*.

  I tried several things:
  - removed all files/directories starting with a . (dot) in the user's home directory
  - using LightDM and the default Ubuntu window manager
  - using LightDM with Gnome
  - using GDM with Gnome

  In all cases the same behavior was observed.
  Logging in with a local user works like a charm.

  This is what /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log says:
