  Multiple Login Issues

Bug description:
  After update to oneiric I had several issues all possibly seem
  related;

  - Login through lightdm had 25 second delay
  ( In lightdm.log "WARNING: Unable to get connection to ConsoleKit: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit: Timeout was reached")
  - Unity top right menu was missing (off screen) on login.
  - 100% one core cpu usage in lightdm when logged in. (Doesn't seem to match exactly bug #836616)
  - Unlock on user accounts was disabled
  - synaptic not launching from gui (pkexec only worked from terminal.)
  - logout didn't return to lightdm, (workaround was to kill 2nd lightdm process.)
  - (when switched ) gdm not allowing login (unconfirmed if this fixes it.)

  First workaround I used was installing a 3.20 gdm ppa; Now I have
  tracked it down further.

  Moving/renaming ~/.ecryptfs solved the problems.

  I don't use encrypted home so doing this is good enough for me.
  In past I had created an encrypted Private folder set to not auto-mount.

  I guess there will be others that actually use an encrypted Private
  directory and so reporting my findings.
