I upgraded to 13.2 after getting a notice that I was running an old xbmc. I did sudo apt-get install xbmc and it did its thing.
Now my machine boots to a login screen instead of to xbmc and I cannot login to either xbmc or xbmcbuntu sessions from this login window. I can login from virtual console or ssh. I can also login fine using xpra/window-switch and launch xbmc remotely to my other machine just fine and can confirm it is updated to gotham 13.2. I just can't get xbmc to run on my actual local machine to the attached display

xorg.0.log - http://paste.ubuntu.com/8302706
dpkg mesa - http://paste.ubuntu.com/8302714
Well DISREGARD -- found that .Xauthority in xbmc home directory was owned by root. Deleted it and lightdm started right up.
