Bug Description
Version: 2:1.7.3.
The xorg-server apport hook should detect situations that the user has 'fglrx' or one of the 'nvidia' modules loaded into the system. When these situations arise, the package should be adjusted to fglrx-installer or the appropriate nvidia source package accordingly. This will prevent triagers from having to sift through bugs that might have been caused by proprietary drivers and reassign packages when they can be spending their time on open source driver bugs.
