Title:
  X startup failure with lightdm

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  LightDM fails with the nvidia-current package and ends up at a
  terminal screen with a failure from plymouth and lightdm. I did a
  workaround and installed GDM and chose that over lightdm and
  subsequently the reboot took me right back to the GDM login screen and
  GPU acceleration was working with the nvidia-current drivers.
