[SOLVED]: lightdm not starting X automatically

After upgrading lightdm and networkmanager to their latest version, Xorg doesn't start automatically, with systemd "hanging" with the following message: "Listening on Load/Save RF Switch Status /dev/rfkill Watch". To load DE, I have to switch to tyy2, login, run "startx", switch to tty7 (ctrl+alt+f7) and login with lightdm.

Re: [SOLVED]: lightdm not starting X automatically

Problem is gone after setting "logind-check-graphical" to "false" in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

# logind-check-graphical = True to on start seats that are marked as graphical by logind
