Comments/Problems:
I chose to install the Cinnamon desktop environment during the
installation process. Upon first logging in (via LightDM, I believe?
whatever was installed by default with Cinnamon), the "default
xsession" choice wouldn't log me in, and dropped me immediately back
to the login screen. Only by going into the sessions menu and clicking
on Cinnamon directly was I then able to successfully log in and load
the desktop environment.
The expected behavior is that the login screen should automatically
load the desktop selected during installation.
One note: this was not a totally clean install. I kept my old /home
partition (from a prior Slackware install), using the same username as
in the old system. So maybe some dotfiles or other user config from
that old installation interfered with LightDM's selection of a desktop
environment here? (I was running xfce on Slackware).
