Same problem here on Kubuntu 14.04. After login, there is no splash
screen and nothing happens. You can move the mouse cursor around, but
that is it.

To downgrade from terminal use:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall upstart=1.12.1-0ubuntu4

Title:
  upstart 1.12.1-0ubuntu4.1 breaks xsession start with lightdm

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading to upstart 1.12.1-0ubuntu4.1, logging in via lightdm
  freezes on xsession start. The choice of xsession doesn't matter. It
  will not load KDE or TWM. It freezes after pressing login without
  trying to start the xsession.

  startx from the commandline launches the xsession properly.

  lightdm works again after reverting to upstart 1.12.1-0ubuntu4.
