Comment:
As per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses?action=recall&rev=380 add crash troubleshooting step for allowing xorg dump.

  
  /!\ Before continuing, make sure the package [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whoopsie|whoopsie]] is installed. Otherwise, Apport will appear to upload a crash report, but only actually does so if whoopsie is installed. Whoopsie is installed by default for users of [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta|ubuntu-desktop]], but for users of alternative desktops, or for server users, whoopsie has to be installed manually with apt-get install whoopsie. See bug #1001630 for details.
  
+ If the crash is in [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg|Xorg]] edit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf from: {{{
+ # Additionally lets the X server dump core if it crashes
+ #Enable=true
+ }}} to: {{{
+ # Additionally lets the X server dump core if it crashes
+ Enable=true
- Once you report the crash, what happens next is dependent on what release you are using.
