The EDID for the display does not mention an 1440x900 mode, so it would
be very bizarre if it was its native mode. However, if you really,
really want to use 1440x900, then you will need to perform an xrandr
--newmode ...; xrandr --output HDMI2 --addmode ...; first.

You are correct Chris, the original logs were indeed from a working

As you can see by the spam :S it looks like I successfully ran apport-

An interesting thing I noticed is that, upon login into the VT, ubuntu
tells me that there is a new release available (13.04) and that I
sould use do-release-upgrade to upgrade to it. Perhaps something went
wrong in the upgrade process.
Actually trying to run do-release-upgrade tells me that

also means that I can't see the failure, the logs present are expected

Ahhh, given what you just mentioned, I remembered that I had added a
