I have just re-executed the command "apport-collect 1360783" while the
broadcom adapter was active, without sudo permission.

It failed with a popup window titled "Updating Problem Report" and the
text "No additional information collected."

Here is the console log:

brian@bacchus:~$ apport-collect 1360783

It doesn't look very helpful to me!
