Lightdm no longer starting
Hello everybody,
I played a bit with my 13.10 installation and managed to break Lightdm :/
I had Lubuntu/Xubuntu/Ubuntu installed and tried to remove Ubuntu following http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelubuntu
Now I can't get to my desktop. At boot I have the following items failing :
Starting load fallback graphics devices
Starting Lightdm Display Manager
Starting Send an event to indicate plymouth is up
Thank you for the help.

Yes sure, that's what I call playing. I'm not saying that's smart !

Did you try Recovery Mode, repair broken packages

Re: Lightdm no longer starting
in recovery try root and type unity
Re: Lightdm no longer starting
From recovery root prompt.
Code:
apt-get install --reinstall lubuntu-desktop
If no joy reinstall saucy.

Hi,
I've been away from the computer for a few days. After today's upgrades, works like a charm again. Can't say what did the trick though.
