Bruce, it's not really Fixed in Xenial yet. If you take Ubuntu GNOME and install the Nvidia proprietary drivers, your computer might fail to show the login screen the next time you reboot. Yes, you can manually install the missing package but it needs to be handled automatically. (It's installed by the 304 and 340 packages but not newer ones.)
