My Toshiba Portege (w. touch-sensitive rotating "tablet" screen) laptop
with Ubuntu 12.04 has been pretty stable, but this morning I left it
with the lid nearly down to the keyboard, and when I returned to it
maybe an hour later, the screen was full of Trash windows (nothing is in
Trash) and although the mouse pointer moved, the system was locked up
and would respond to no keyboard or mouse input, and had to be powered
down.

The only similar question (unanswered) I see on Ask Ubuntu is "Random
applications open on lid close; doesn't suspend" .

Hopefully it won't happen again. My guess is it was some weird effect of
leaving it with the screen in that position (the touchscreen went
insane?), but I thought I would ask Ask Ubuntu in case, and it suggested
I file a bug when I tagged the question with Lockup. My question is
http://askubuntu.com/questions/284294/why-did-my-ubuntu-12-04-laptop-
fill-with-trash-windows-and-lock-up

Along the way here, I noticed something saying "Make sure you include the 
/system/quantal-ubuntu_stamp file and the output of 
adb shell getprop ro.cm.device" or else my bug report would be useless. Ok 
great, but I don't seem to have a /system folder in my file system. Output of 
"locate quantal" is:
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_linux-lts-quantal.py
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_linux-lts-quantal.pyc
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_linux-meta-lts-quantal.py
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_linux-meta-lts-quantal.pyc

and the output of adb shell getprop ro.cm.device is:
No command 'adb' found, did you mean:
 Command 'cdb' from package 'tinycdb' (main)
 Command 'gdb' from package 'gdb' (main)
 Command 'dab' from package 'bsdgames' (universe)
 Command 'zdb' from package 'zfs-fuse' (universe)
 Command 'kdb' from package 'elektra-bin' (universe)
 Command 'tdb' from package 'tads2-dev' (multiverse)
 Command 'pdb' from package 'python' (main)
 Command 'jdb' from package 'openjdk-6-jdk' (main)
 Command 'jdb' from package 'openjdk-7-jdk' (universe)
 Command 'ab' from package 'apache2-utils' (main)
 Command 'ad' from package 'netatalk' (universe)
adb: command not found

So hopefully this isn't useless...
