Title:
  setting an invalid greeter makes lightdm say that you are in low
  graphics mode

Status in Light Display Manager:
  Fix Released
Status in xdiagnose:
  Fix Released
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In the process of experimenting with a new greeter, I mistyped the
  greeter name.   When I did this and restarted lightdm, lightdm throws
  up a screen saying I'm in low graphics mode "Your screen, graphics
  card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly".  At
  this point, none of the options provided works.  I double checked my
  lightdm conf file and caught the error, but this is a confusing and
  incorrect message in this specific case.

  See screen cap attached.

  To repro, edit lightdm.conf and set "greeter-session=fred" or anything
  that's not a valid session name.

  I'm running  lightdm   1.1.9-0ubuntu1
