Title:
  Logout fails to return to login window

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have recently installed Ubuntu 11.10, followed by my installing xubuntu-desktop through Synaptic. I can log in normally, and use XFCE normally(By selecting it with the gear icon at the login screen to select XFCE session), but upon logout, I get a blank screen for about 15 sec., followed by screen corruption which looks like scrambled pixels from the logon screen. I will attach a photo later.
  I expect to see the logon screen.
  Distro and flavor: Ubuntu 11.10
  xubuntu-desktop:
    Installed: 2.138.1
    Candidate: 2.138.1
  Steps to reproduce:
  1)Install Ubuntu 11.10 amd64 through wubi
  2)Install xubuntu-desktop through Synaptic.
  3)Attempt a logon selecting XFCE session instead of Ubuntu or Ubuntu 2D.
  4)Use XFCE normally.
  5)Attempt logout.
  5a) Note screen corruption.
  A hard reboot is necessary to fix situation.
  ALT+SYSRQ+K does not work to force logoff in this situation.
