Brad Figg (brad-figg): The computer affected has no Internet connection. How can I do "apport" off-line?

Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury): This bug has been there since I installed the system. I have not known how to report it. Mostly I use an external USB-mouse, so I am only affected when I can't use the mouse.

I installed the computer from scratch with Ubuntu 15.04. The touchpad works without any updates. But with Ubuntu 14.10 and all updates the pad is not recognized.
