Title:
  lightdm gets confused after multiple login/logouts

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Got this on xubuntu 13.10:
  When I logout and login again and start gdmflexiserver (or any other dbus call to displaymanager), the screen turns black with the mouse cursor still visible. The session is still running since I can terminate it by executing 'blindly' the normal logout process.

  A fishy side aspect: When i switch to ttyX via ctrl+alt+fX and login, the username AND password is also written to .bash_history of the user with the crippled X-session(if he left a shell open with focus). So you might want consider this as a security issue.
