I've just updated another computer's HWE stack from Trusty (xserver- xorg) to Vivid (xserver-xorg-lts-vivid) and can confirm again that this bug has been fixed, starting from when you update to Vivid HWE stack.
The /etc/X11/X symlink is still deleted when one purges the remnants of the previous stack, but X nevertheless starts normally at boot time. I've changed the bug status to Fix Released for xorg-lts-vivid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
