    Can't switch to lightdm

    I can't enable lightdm. When in console mode I'll try

    sudo start lightdm

    but the screen flickers and then goes back to the console. Help please
    Note that I did have fglrx installed but this has now gone since it's not yet supported on 12.10.

    I'm not sure what should go here now that I've removed fglrx.

      Just switched the driver to "radeon" in xorg-conf but now I get this:

        try to purge xorg.conf completely.. is not necessary when using opensource drivers.
        The KMS part of video driver will provide the correct resolutions of monitor..

        Although I see a KMS error in dmesg:
        [ 98.636] (EE) RADEON(0): [drm] failed to set drm interface version.
        [ 98.668] (EE) RADEON(0): Kernel modesetting setup failed

          Dunno about your drivers, but "sudo start lightdm" won't switch you to lightdm, you need to reconfigure the system to do that, e.g.

          sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm

          And chose lightdm from the selection that comes up.

          Then reboot

            Oh I thought that was just to set the default. I switched over using that command anyway and the same thing resulted - a flash and the console on the screen. I then ran sudo start kdm which loaded perfectly and now here I am lol.

              No problems here whatsoever. I installed LightDM in Synaptic. It asked me which login manager I want to use, and I chose LightDM. Upon next boot, LightDM is running just fine. Using the free radeon driver as well. It doesn't need an xorg.conf file, so simply remove it.

              You could try:
              - uninstall LightDM
              - reboot, kdm should be started automatically
              - use Synaptic to install LightDM
              - when asked, pick LightDM as your login manager
              - upon reboot, LightDM should be used
