Odd, I don't have any trouble at all with gdm3. lightdm wouldn't even
start under systemd, IIRC. But this was about six months ago and may well
already be fixed. (I was guessing some missing integration with logind or
something; since it wasn't what I was fiddling with at the time, I didn't
investigate it in detail.)
