[Bug 1163644] [NEW] Login screen does not work; must log in via terminal and then startx

[Charles Ford]

Public bug reported:

I was running lubuntu 13.04 and wanted to see how gnome worked on my
machine. (iBook G4)

I installed it and was unable to log in via the login screen. Then i
tried uninstalling. It still didn't work, and I didn't have a whole
lubuntu-desktop package anymore. I reinstalled lubuntu-desktop and
gnome, attempting to fix the problem.

I'm going to reinstall and reattempt installing multiple desktop
environments.
