Could you get the 'journalctl -b 0' log from a failed session?

Title:
  lightdm does not work on eoan on raspberry pi 4

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  if you follow the directions on
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi

  sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

  about 20% thru the installation it will ask which window manager you want (using dpkg-reconfigure).
  if you select lightdm, you will only get a blank greeter screen after you reboot.

  using sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3

  resets this to gdm3 and after a reboot, everything is fine.

  this was done on a clean armhf eoan install on a 4gb raspberry pi 4B.

  I have done the install several times.   This bug is repeatable.
