I had installed gdm but, still kept lightdm as my display manager. However it would never boot into Precise 12.04 after I installed it because sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm only put "lightdm" in /etc/X11/default-display-manager instead of "/usr/sbin/lightdm" as it should have. Thus, lightdm would not startup at bootup.
If it weren't for Paddy Landau's workaround to gain r/w access in recovery mode I would have never been able to recover without doing another install.

I hope you fix this soon.
