Title:
  kubuntu 14.10 plasma 5 iso doesn't start X

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This is easy to reproduce: Burn a kubuntu 14.10 plasma 5 ISO,
  downloaded from here:

  http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-14.10

  Boot from it.  X will not start, and the machine falls to a command
  prompt.  Typing startx starts everything and it's possible to proceed.

  I should note that that my machine has an nvidia 560M graphics card in
  it, and is running the nouveau driver on the ISO.

  Rick Timmis on the kubuntu-developer list notes:

  > I can confirm, same problem install fails on init-rcd scriot, and complains about saned, and drops to command prompt.
  I>  too typed startx, and was off and running again, amd64 iso, which is 1.2Gd a DVD image.
