apport (1.20.1-0ubuntu2) natty; urgency=low

  [ Brad Figg ]
  * The kernel team has decided that asking the user for a bunch of
    information which they may not be able to answer is the wrong thing to do.
    Therefore, all the propmpting of the user for said information has been
    removed. Also removed is the tagging of "needs-upstream-testing".

looks like it might solve this whole issue. is there a way to trigger a kernel oops to see what the new apport looks like.
