Could you open a console, do 'ls /var/crash' and then:
apport-retrace <usplash.crash filename> where usplash.crash filename is the name as it appears in the output of ls /var/crash.
And then attached the <usplash.crash> file.,, please.

Soon this won't be necessary anymore, but because you are using powerpc architecture, this is necessary.

[Paul Dufresne (paulduf)]

well, you probably need to 'sudo apt-get install apport-retrace' and use 'sudo apport-retrace <usplash.crsh filename> . Now that I think about it, maybe you even have to edit /etc/sources.list and add a:
deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ddebs feisty main
line in it. Sorry, I admit this is quite a complex command.

[Martin Schaaf (mascha)]

Thanks for your response and explanations. The sources.list modification isn't necessary. If I run the suggested command I get the following output: report file does not contain required fields: CoreDump Package ExecutablePath

Is this expected? The modification time doesn't change after the above command so I do not attache it again.

[Martin Schaaf (mascha)]

I get a new crash and have done your suggestion. I have added this file to bug report #107413 , because I do not know whether it is the same.
