Bug Description
When you log out, ~/.Xauthority still exists. Subsequent logins via lightdm are impossible. The screen flashes and then you're dumped back at the login screen. You have to ssh into the machine (or use a virtual terminal) and remove ~/.Xauthority, then you can login again.
I know I reported something similar before, but I can't find that bug now. :(
summary: |
- Cannot login unless ~/.Xauthority is removed + Cannot login into ecrypts directories if not unmounted before |

Right, I closed your other bug pointed to bug #823775 which was similar but the issue you hit seems a .Xauthority one not a .ICEauthority one
