Timo: I don't know exactly for the 14.04.3 LTS -utopic to -vivid HWE upgrade, but I can confirm this bug is still present for the 14.04.3 LTS -trusty to -vivid HWE upgrade.
I've just done a fresh install of 14.04.x LTS, using a PXE server so I'm not exactly sure what the x was in the image I used. On completion of the install and updates I was left with a 14.04.3 LTS and the original kernel and X server, i.e. linux-generic and xserver-xorg. I updated them to linux-generic-lts-vivid and xserver-xorg-lts-vivid. After purging the old xserver-xorg related packages, the /etc/X11/X link was gone. I still believe this bug should not be left unfixed, but perhaps that's just me. ** Summary changed: - Xorg fails to start after installing the hardware enablement stack on precise due to missing symlink after purging old xserver-xorg + Xorg fails to start after installing the Hardware Enablement Stack due to missing symlink after purging old xserver-xorg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1132736 Title: Xorg fails to start after installing the Hardware Enablement Stack due to missing symlink after purging old xserver-xorg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1132736/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
