@brad-figg: I ran the command you asked me to. I was able to successfully launch vncserver and run apport-collect in that. I presume the command failed since it showed a backtrace in python and a long html output. dpkg also warned me that package 'linux' was not found. I'm attaching the full logs containing the output of apport-collect 1603564

At first, I presumed the entire machine had halted since the keyboard and mouse stopped working. However, I'm still able to SSH in although the screen is completely non-responsive. Pressing the power button on the CPU seems to bring up a window with Ubuntu's power options. My Ubuntu version: No LSB modules are available.
