Seems to have gone away by adding the following to /etc/default/grub

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="tpm_tis.interrupts=0"

good luck

cisco, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Could you please execute the following command, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:
apport-collect 1417450

I am seeing this error message too - but only since I decided to manually install the vivid 3.18 kernel on my 14.04.

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Ed Guenter, just to advise, installing a 3.18 kernel in 14.04 is not supported.

However, if this is reproducible in a supported release (ex. live or installed environment of Vivid), it will help immensely if you filed a new report via a terminal:
ubuntu-bug linux

Please feel free to subscribe me to it.
