OK made some progress. I can login now.
I modified /etc/lightdm/ligthdm.conf to
Code:
[SeatDefaults]
user-session=ubuntu
greeter-session=unity-greeter
If you replace it with greeter-session=lightdm-greeter, then it will break.
I still see a bunch of errors such as "Session 1989 terminated with signal 15; Session 1989 failed during authentication", but someone it does let me log in afterwards.
Code:
