Teo, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
However, your crash report is missing.

Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. First, execute at a terminal:
cd /var/crash && sudo rm * ; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade && sudo service apport start force_start=1

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. Now reproduce the crash, then open a terminal, navigate to your /var/crash directory and file your report with:
sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash

where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. By
default, this sends the crash to the Ubuntu Error Tracker
infrastructure, which is different than Launchpad. For more on this,
please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker .

However, if after doing this you would still like to have a crash report posted to Launchpad, for example to ease triage and add others to your report, one would need to open the following file via a terminal:
sudo nano /etc/apport/crashdb.conf

and comment out the line:
'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],

by changing it to:
# 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],

Save, close, and file the crash report via:
sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash

However, this report is being closed since the process outlined above
will deal with this issue more efficiently.

Also, please do not attach your crash report manually to this report and
reopen it.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Xorg crashed when attempting to turn on laptop's builtin display

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Having been hit by bug #1535452 (please see the description), I went
  back to Display settings and I tried to manually turn on the laptop's
  builtin display that I had previously turned off (obviously did this
  while the external monitor was connected). When I clicked on the
  button to turn on the builtin display, xorg crashed.

  Since this is a crasher, and potentially leads to disastrous data loss
  (imagine you are left with no monitor and can't save your work prior
  to switching off the laptop), I'll set this to confirm because there's
  no point in waiting for some other random user to confirm it.
