It seems that xinit is not installed by default in bodhi, perhaps lxdm 
doesn't use it. I went ahead and installed it and some other X11 stuff. 
Now the stock elsa does reveal the installed sessions as well as the 
system one. It still fails to login, blaming the authentication. I put 
an xinitrc in my home dir and can login using elsa with the lxdm pam 
configuration. However, this is breaking my sound system some how. My 
sound card doesn't show afterward. Nor can I suspend. Still looking for 
the solution, it would be nice to have elsa working for bodhi seeing as 
how bodhi is attempting to showcase enlightnement.

Thanks for your reply.
