[Bug 496363] [NEW] Installing nvidia kills xorg on non-nvidia systems
Public bug reported:
On a system where i was moving hard drives from one machine to another,
I noticed that the second machine would not boot successfully because
the first had an nvidia driver which was loaded for it's operation.
This presents a problem, because if the nvidia package could be
accidentally installed, then people could end up with non working
systems.
Removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf fixed the problem.
** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (Ubuntu)
