I have to agree with M. van Workum. Regarding your comments in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1005226/comments/25 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1005226/comments/30 I would like to make the following comments:

1) The page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/BestPractices#X.2BAC8-Reporting.Focus_on_One_Issue is about reporting bugs in Xorg and not the kernel, and as such probably does not apply to kernel bugs. The linux kernel is much more tightly integrated than the xserver and all of it's associated packages.

2) The comments in paragraph 6 at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette are insulting.

3) The page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelTeamBugPolicies#Filing_Kernel_Bug_reports is actually relevant and useful, however it does not say anything about filing separate bug reports.
