Bug Description

I tried to fill bug report about Xorg or something other about display.
Apport asked about which is report? I selected Xorg, because i'ts about display.
Apport began to collect information, asked for root password, and then tell that i'ts not about Ubuntu.
It knew about it from the first question!
1. Why collect information if later refuse to help.
2. My bug happened on Ubuntu, why refuse to help?
