[Bug 1248315] [NEW] Saucy: oem user gets removed even though customer config not completed

[Jason Gerard DeRose]

Public bug reported:

This is a rather odd bug that is only occurring on desktop systems
equipped with an NVidia card in which the customer mistakenly plugged
their monitor into the Intel output on the motherboard when they first
booted their system.

Our steps to reproduce:

1. Image the nvidia system with 13.10
2. Run oem-config shortcut
3. Shut system down
4. Unplug monitor and plug it into the Intel graphics ports on the motherboard
5. Power the system up
6. Wait 2-3 minutes for the hard drive activity to stop
7. Hold the power button to turn the system off
8. Plug the monitor back into the nvidia card, then boot the system

The costumer will then find themselves at the LightDM login screen where
the only options are "Guest", "Login" (where they can type a username
ans password), and "Remote Login" (if connected to network).

Not entirely sure yet, but this seems vaguely similar to this bug:

There is also a chance this only occurs on Haswell systems; we'll test
on Ivy Bridge shortly.
