I've tried several ways, as instructed; ubuntu-bug linux apport-cli -f apport-cli -f -P 1 apport-cli -f -p linux --save bug.apport apport-cli -f -p linux-image-3.5.0-17-generic --save bug.apport These seem to be right based on the man pages and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs , but all of them report something akin to 'This is not an official Ubuntu package. Please remove any third party package and try again.' This seems wrong, not helpful, and odd, since I'm just booting from the downloaded official xubuntu 12.10 live DVD. It would seem that all packages in this distribution would be Official. My question is, how can I report my kernel bug? Also, how can I report this bug against apport (I get the same error when I try to use apport to do so). Please note other people seem to be having similar problems as well. Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 $ apt-cache policy apport apport: Installed: 2.6.1-0ubuntu3 Candidate: 2.6.1-0ubuntu3 Version table: *** 2.6.1-0ubuntu3 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.4-0ubuntu8 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages What I expected to happen: for it to report the bug(s) correctly, or to provide a helpful error message explaining why it could not, possibly pointing me in the right direction to resolve the issue.
