There is nothing more in the dir /var/log/lightdm/

/var/lib/lightdm/
Does that directory exist ? I'm only guessing but it looks like it's trying to write .Xauthority then trying to open it..

If it does exist what are the permissions, owner, group

Code: [Select]
ls -al /var/lib/lightdm/

The directory does not exist, what content should the file .Xauthority have?
Same like /var/lib/lightdm-data . It is not enough to create the folders.. :(

As root

Code: [Select]
mkdir /var/lib/lightdm
chown lightdm:lightdm /var/lib/lightdm
chmod 1770 /var/lib/lightdm

.Xauthority should hopefully be created for you.

I don't know why this and previously mentioned dir's were missing ?Some thing is wrong (I'm good at stating the obvious)

Yeah! This solved my problem. :)
Just to be on the safe side i've changed the rights also for the lightdm-data folder.

But why this is not set default...  ::)

Glad to hear it :) Yes you were right to do the data folder as well.

It should have JUST worked as you say. Always has for me. I would hazard a guess at operator error in some way but who knows ?

For future reference if you run into problems, which you are going to post, try to find logs and config files and post them straight away. Saves a lot of messing around.
And properly read the logs. The answer is often right there. (searching for 'error' in the log, if it's long, is a good start and can speed things up)

Glad to have been of some help :)
