Bug Description
I am the maintainer of Ubuntu MATE Remix, we are currently working towards being an official Ubuntu flavour.
Since early September LightDM crashes when the option to "Try Ubuntu" is selected from the Welcome screen. LightDM was working fine upto the 28th August, if I track the timeline it appears to have started crashing since lightdm (1.11.8-0ubuntu1).
It is also worth noting that I include the following configurating in the live session `/etc/lightdm/
[SeatDefaults]
autologin-
autologin-
user-session=mate
