Bug Description

System program error discovered. Unfortunately there was an internal error in Ubuntu 15.10.

After clicking away the error messages ubuntu seems to be working fine.
I had some problems before (with earlier versions of Ubuntu) with the video driver of AMD (GPU build-in in the microprocessor).

Please:

1. Edit the bug description, so it tells in English how to reproduce the bug and what are the consequences of it.
2. Edit the title, so it is specific and meaningful.
3. Set this bug status back to "confirmed".

Thank you.

Luc Henderieckx, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is missing.

Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. First, execute at a terminal:
cd /var/crash && sudo rm * ; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade && sudo service apport start force_start=1

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. Now reproduce the crash, then open a terminal, navigate to your /var/crash directory and file your report with:
sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash

where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. By default, this sends the crash to the Ubuntu Error Tracker infrastructure, which is different than Launchpad. For more on this, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker .

However, if after doing this you would still like to have a crash report posted to Launchpad, for example to ease triage and add others to your report, one would need to open the following file via a terminal:
sudo nano /etc/apport/crashdb.conf

and comment out the line:
'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],

by changing it to:
# 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],

Save, close, and file the crash report via:
sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash

However, this report is being closed since the process outlined above will deal with this issue more efficiently.

Also, please do not attach your crash report manually to this report and reopen it.

Thank you for your understanding.

I did not succeed in running the proposed update in Ubunto 15.10. I
re-installed Ubuntu 15.10 several times and each time it developed the same
error when I installed the AMD video driver. I got tired of it and I now
installed Mint 17.3, which seems to be based on Ubuntu, and that works
flawlessly after installing the very same AMD video driver. This may give
you a clue about in which direction you have to look to find this bug ....
It most certainly has something to do with an incompatibility between
Ubuntu 15.10 and the AMD Linux video driver for sure ...
Kind regards, Luc Henderieckx

Kind regards,
Vriendelijke groeten,
