I found out that lightdm-gtk-greeter works, after I had a second look
into lightdm.conf. (comment #2)

It is actually unity-greeter (0.1.1-0ubuntu1) that fails. Instead of
showing the greeter, there is blank screen and hard disk indicator led
blinks actively. The keyboard is unresponsive for a while: you cannot
enter tty1, caps lock indicator led is not turned on, but then after
about 10 seconds from pressing the keyboard the HD led is turned off and
the keyboard starts to work normally. Probably this is a subject of
another bug report.

The greeter can be changed in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. I simply
commented the unity-greeter. Reinstalling nvidia-173 or nvidia-common
did not help.

Title:
  GDM automatic login is not transitioned to lightdm automatic login

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “lightdm” source package in Oneiric:

Bug description:
  lightdm: 0.9.7-0ubuntu1

  I did an upgrade from natty to oneiric using 'do-release-upgrade -d'.
  Natty was configured for automatic login and included a custom.conf.
  After the upgrade I'm brought to a lightdm login screen.  The
  automatic login configuration was not copied into lightdm.
