I've looked up the appropriate journal that describes what I did to get
debugging info sent to launchpad for the bug where 80% of the screen is
black and you are unable to use apport because of that...

On the computer with the graphics problem I did this:-
apport-cli -f -p linux --save 32-bit-graphics.apport
The above command gathered debugging information and put it in the file
32-bit-graphics.apport
I then copied that file to USB flash drive and copied it to a computer to
report it.

On the working computer I did this:-
ubuntu-bug -c 32-bit-graphics.apport

Apologies if this information is at a bit of a tangent. My motive is to get
this information out into the open.

HTH,


Ian
