Public bug reported: Sometimes every time I log in to Xubuntu 16.04, sometimes every other time, the first thing I get are 2 dialogs saying there has been a problem and 2 requests for permission to submit a problem report. I always give permission, and after I do, everything seems to work fine. Every time I've ever looked at the details, I find something that says the problem report is damaged and cannot be processed, and refers to an invalid core dump with a warning referencing /tmp/apport_core. This has been going on for over a year, but doesn't seem to be a common problem, since I find only 2 similar bug references. Bugs #1424864 and #1507461 appear to be giving a similar but not identical error message, and the symptoms of neither match mine.
Using instructions from bug #1424864, I tried apport-collect -p xorg 1424864, and was told to open another bug report. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.10 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: XFCE DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: xenial DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: virtualbox, 5.0.40, 4.4.0-92-generic, x86_64: installed virtualbox, 5.0.40, 4.4.0-93-generic, x86_64: installed GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
