Lightdm version 1.0.01 from package 1.0.1-0ubuntu
Using the Nvidia 280.13 driver

In the log file, the admin user rich successfully logged in, then used the
switch applet to select the standard user fi. Entered fi's password at the
login screen, then lightdm appeared to crash. Had to start lightdm (sudo
start lightdm) to be able to return to my GUI session for rich. Hope this
helps, if you need more info, please let me know.
