Bug Description
**Workaround**
Install lxdm from tty
A simple how to for those not sure how to install from tty is:
1 - when the screen goes blank press control+alt+F1 to bring up the tty1 terminal.
2 - log into this console using your normal username and password
3 - type in "sudo apt-get install lxdm" and enter in your password
4 - type "sudo reboot"
5 - when it reboots you will need to press alt+L to get past the issue one more time
6 - change the session to Lubuntu
7 - login
It should now function as normally expected from here on in

Removing unity-greeter solve the problem. It should not be installed on Lubuntu, I'll look at this issue.
