OK, that seems to have "failed."  I guess I will open a new bug report
about this similar problem.

Title:
  Lightdm fails to start session…

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi,

  This bug appears right after upgrading to Quantal.  Lightdm works well, but when I try to login, a console screen with a lot of text is openned, then the Lightdm screen reappears immediately.  I thus cannot open my session graphically in Quantal (while I never expererienced such thing in Precise).
  Note that there is no problem when I try to connect in console mode (via tty1 for instance).

  What is strange about this is that I *can* open a graphical session as guest.  Maybe it's not because of Lightdm, but of some configuration file I have.  I used Gnome-shell before the upgrade, but it keeped crashing:  do you thing this is because Gnome-Shell crashes at launch?
  When I try to run “gnome-shell --replace” on a guest session (which is on Unity but default), I get a screen with window, but no window manager seems to be there (is that even possible?):  I cannot interact with other window than the one I focus into, and I cannot change such a focus…

  If that can help, here is a bug report of another problem I
  encountered while upgrading:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-
  upgrader/+bug/1059231 .  Maybe it's linked?

  Shall I report a bug against Gnome-Shell rather than Lightdm?  If it
  really is Gnome-shell that cause this bug, it would be nice from
  Lightdm to display a message informing that the window manager
  crashed, so that we can report a bug directly against it ;-)

  Hoping it can help,
  Martin.
