lightdm doesn't run on the startup ... and as well :

Code:
~ » sudo lightdm

Lightdm does not run by itself.
Plz edit
/etc/conf.d/display-manager
Code:

DISPLAYMANAGER="lightdm"

then
Code:

rc-update add display-manager default
rc-update add elogind boot
#rc-update add dbus default # not really necessary as elogind might invoke it.
