Title:
  lightdm doesn't find unity-greeter

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 11.10 today, the computer didn't start anymore.
  After the "ubuntu loading screen" with the dots, the display reverted
  to a text screen, ending in some information about "battery status".

  After logging in on tty1, I could start gdm as a workaround.

  The problem is twofold. First, /var/log/lightdm/x-0.log (and I think /var/log/lighdm/lightdm.log as well) complained about insufficient privileges to create /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log. After `chown lightdm /var/log/lightdm" said file was created (when restarting lightdm) containing the single line
  exec: 33: unity-greeter: not found

  If this happened to a new user, they would be lost!

  PS: unity-greeter is installed to /usr/sbin/, but that is not in the
  path apparently)
