Title:
  oem-config gtk frontend does not get displayed on first boot if two
  display managers are installed

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This problem has been reported a number of times in the past:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/650703
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/644638
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/812230

  While the past reports are listed as fixed, the problem is still
  present in Oneric if gdm is installed prior to running the oem-config-
  prepare command and rebooting.

  I've confirmed that this is indeed linked to gdm being installed, as
  simply moving (or removing) the /etc/init/gdm.conf upstart definition
  from /etc/init/ rectifies the problem.  While restoring the file and
  rebooting (without completing the user configuration from oem-
  configure-firstboot) recreates the problem.

  I'm attempting to pin this down more definitively to locate exactly
  what within gdm's upstart definition is causing the issue.
