Michael, You can make an xorg.conf that doesn't functionally change anything for example: http://askubuntu.com/questions/217758/how-to-make-an-xorg-conf- file
After you make the xorg.conf and put it in place, reboot to make sure the system still boots with it. If it does, do the dist-upgrade, install the proposed package and then reboot. If the xorg.conf remains in place then this bug is fixed. If it gets renamed, then you have hit the bug again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307546 Title: dist-upgrade from 12.04 -> 14.04 axes /etc/X11/xorg.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/1307546/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
