Re-opening the apport task. I just have the same problem on a live CD
(with some daemon startup problem (hal?)).

The problem appears to be when running apport (e.g. "sudo ubuntu-bug -p hello") 
"root", when there's a firefox session for the user already.
"ubuntu-bug -p hello" (as user) opens a new firefox tab.

       Status: Invalid => New

** Summary changed:

- Firefox fails to start from non-existent directory: "Firefox is already 
running...."
+ Apport cannot start firefox: "Firefox is already running...."

** Description changed:
