Title:
  xserver-xorg-core not installed on update from 12.04 to 12.10

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I installed 12.04 LTS on 2013-04-18, and everything was running fine.
  I updated to 12.10 Quantal on 2013-04-21 and once the upgrade was
  complete, I rebooted.

  Bug:
  1. Upon reboot, I couldn't get past the Ubuntu loading screen (never got to 
login, went to a black screen instead).
  2. I rebooted again and this time I pressed ESC to get to the console and 
logged in the console
  3. I tried "startx" and it failed with "No Screen Found"
  4. I looked at /var/log/xorg.0.log and found that it was trying to load a 
bunch of modules "intel", "vesa", and a few others... seems like it was trying 
to find a drivers to load but couldn't find any. At the bottom of the log it 
gave up with "No Drivers Available" or something.

  Workaround:
  5. I found that I had a bunch of xserver-*-lts-quantal packages, and I 
thought those weren't supposed to be there so I "apt-get install 
xserver-xorg-video-intel" and it replaced the xserver-*-lts-quantal packages 
with just xserver-xorg.
  6. Rebooted, and the problem was gone (X started fine).

  So everything is working now, but I thought I'd file this somewhere since I 
had a very stock install (~3 days old) and it seems like it failed to update 
xserver packages during the 12.04->12.10 upgrade. I'm on a ThinkPad T410s and 
my video card is:
  VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated 
Graphics Controller (rev 02)

  Please let me know if I filed this in the wrong place :)
