I changed in the file /etc/init/lightdm.conf the line

stop on runlevel [016]

to

stop on runlevel [06]

Now lightdm automatically starts after booting. But I haven't tested the change with many runlevel changes.

Kind regards,
sk

The improvement is marginal. Only in about one of three boots lightdm starts.
