The problem here is that /usr/share/apport/apport-gpu-error-intel.py, which is supposed to automatically report a bug for a GPU error, itself crashes. For some reason the Apport retracing service thinks this is a bug in nvidia-graphics-driver even though /usr/share/apport/apport-gpu-error-intel.py is in the xserver-xorg-video-intel package.

Judging by the number of duplicates of this report, once we get this working properly, we will have a lot of GPU error bugs.

Hmmm.

It runs fine for me:

bryce@blumonc:/usr/share/apport/package-hooks$ sudo /usr/share/apport/apport-gpu-error-intel.py
[sudo] password for bryce:
bryce@blumonc:/usr/share/apport/package-hooks$

Guess I should figure out what the check_ignored() routine

Just crashed on me while I was reporting an X.org crash that happened when I was removing Alien Arena thru Synaptic. I'd gotten to the point where Firefox had loaded Launchpad, and wham!

This bug was fixed in the package xserver-xorg-video-intel - 2:2.9.1-1ubuntu10

---------------
xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu10) lucid; urgency=low

  * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
    + check_ignored() can be called only after ExecutablePath is defined

To anyone that reported this bug, duplicate, or simply has the same problem: You had a GPU hang bug that triggered apport-gpu-error-intel.py which was supposed to automatically collect information for this kind of bug. Unfortunately, there was a bug in the information-collecting python script that prevented it from collecting that information. This bug has now been fixed (hence the 'Fix Released' status of this bug report) in xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.9.1-1ubuntu10. If you still have the original problem, it would be nice if you could file a new bug report - hopefully the script is able to do a better job now, although we're not quite sure yet that it is always able to capture all the information we need.

If the automatic bug reporting is no longer happening after updating to 2.9.1-1ubuntu10, please let us know here.

This Bug seems to exist in Maverick again.
It is exactly the same procedure.
