@costamagnagianfranco, a new lts kernel exists in trusty (linux-image-generic-lts-vivid 3.19.0.26.13), and this is the launchpad bug report that apport directs us to when trying to upload the crash, so I'm reopening it, if you think it should be closed and another one should be opened, please also tell us a way to direct apport there too.
