Either this fix isn't complete or I have a similar problem.

On my fast hardware (a Clevo W370ET with SSD and a quad core i7) I observe the same effects. Even after updating to latest versions I get the fault. I'm running raring (XUbuntu 13.04).

I observe at 50% of booting a black screen with a blinking cursor and a mousepointer. I can switch to a terminal console and by entering the command "sudo service lightdm restart" I get a running graphical session.

Also the workaround at comment #5, inserting a sleep 1 in lightdm.conf does help. But I doesn't like the idea of solving a race condition by inserting some sleep. Especially on a fast booting ssd notebook.

Should I open a new bug report or should I continue tis one?
