Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

if you run $ubuntu-bug compiz, apport said that coundn't include /etc/X11/xorg.conf (see attach screeshot):

browsing the hook for compiz (source_compiz.py) looks like:
...
attach_file_if_exists(report, path.expanduser('~/.xsession-errors'), 'XsessionErrors')
attach_file(report, '/etc/X11/xorg.conf', 'XorgConf')
attach_file_if_exists(report, '/var/log/Xorg.0.log', 'XorgLog')
attach_file_if_exists(report, '/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old', 'XorgLogOld')
....

In newer Ubuntu Versions this file don't exists because is autodetected, so maybe adding next line into compiz hook would be better:
attach_file_if_exists(report, '/etc/X11/xorg.conf', 'XorgConf')

Thanks!
