I think you can also do
$ apport-collect 1195483
instead of
$ ubuntu-bug linux
correct?

Title:
  Installation, Live and Check disc do not start on Asus ZenBook Prime
  UX31A

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” source package in Raring:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” source package in Saucy:

Bug description:
  When I try to install Ubuntu 13.04 on a new Asus ZenBook Prime UX31A
  from june 2013, grub will come up bit every option such as
  Installation, Live and Check disc result in a blank screen. This is
  possibly due to preinstalled Windows 8 and UEFI.

  I did not approve/accept the Windows 8 installation and that should
  not matter. I want to install only Ubuntu and *no* dual boot with the
  preinstalled Windows 8. I want to erase the entire disc in firsts
  steps of installation procedure.

  Screenshot illustrating the problem are:

  Debugging attempts from
  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Boot_Debugging failed. Perhaps I
  did something wrong. What are ways to write debug to the screen in my
  case?

  And, more importantly, how do I get it working because have the right
  to install whatever I want?

  Is the only way to get it installed to accept the Windows 8 license
  and install Ubuntu from Windows (and in effect making it dual boot
  which I don't want).

  Ubuntu should fix this as it is the flagship of a major laptop
  manufacturer (ASUS) for which Ubuntu is no longer installable.
