ubuntu wiki LightDM states:

LighDM configuration is governed by the lightdm.conf file, however it's not suppose to be directly edited, instead use:

lightdm-set-defaults

$ lightdm-set-defaults
lightdm-set-defaults: command not found
$ sudo lightdm-set-defaults
sudo: lightdm-set-defaults: command not found
$ lightdm -v
lightdm 1.4.0

synaptic 0.75.12 'Quick filter' finds no matches on 'lightdm-set-defaults'.

How do I install 'lightdm-set-defaults'?

I experience the issue where the command isn't installed. Are you running Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail or a close variant? I am, and the lightdm-set-defaults functionality is gone. Perhaps it's an issue that will be resolved prior to the final release in April? – user141525 Mar 19 at 1:12
lightdm-set-defaults is probably not on your PATH Try: sudo /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm-set-defaults – coldeq Apr 21 at 21:12
@coldeq make that an answer. – C.W.Holeman II May 9 at 20:24

As you can see by searching the packages.ubuntu.com website, it's a command, provided by the lightdm package, which you already have I assume.

So, just run in a terminal:

sudo lightdm-set-defaults
