New issue 131440 by lambrosl...@chromium.org: [chromoting] Update Linux
Virtual Me2Me to work on Ubuntu >= 11.10
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=131440

Recent versions of Ubuntu have replaced gdm with lightdm. Also, their
default desktops don't work with Xvfb as they require hardware-accelerated
graphics.

A quick fix is to use /usr/bin/gnome-session-fallback if it is installed.
We should investigate to find out why unity-2d doesn't work properly.
