[LGB [Gábor Lénárt] <spam@xxxxxx>]

The dialog box saying low graphics mode allows me to exit to console, if
I do that, I can see on console 7 (ALT+F7):

[FAILED] Failed to start Light Display Manager.
See "systemctl status lightdm.service" for details.
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Graphical Interface.

Entering the suggested command:

issuing command "service lightdm start" starts lightdm though, and I can
login and work.

Title:
  Xserver does not start on boot (low-graphics mode)

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After upgrading to (32bit) vivid I hadn't got any problem, but since a
  day (daily upgraded) booting results in a dialog saying low graphics
  mode and a dialog window about this. Choosing running in default mode
  causes to boot splash to be shown forever. if I choose exit to
  console, log in then service stop then start for lightdm, it works
  then though. Maybe is not Xserver bug, but the new init system
  (systemd) race condition of starting things, or such?
