Bug Description
Those are only snippits.
I have no idea what's causing the problem. I ran the installer as per normal, set up the system, everything works fine for several hours. Then these log files fill to cap, and the system starts acting retarded.
This is on my parents computer. They have no idea how to use ubuntu for anything but simple stuff like websurfing and openoffice.
This is a serious usability issue for them, and I'm leaving town tomorrow.
How can I get the necessary information?

Thank you for taking the time to make Ubuntu better.
Marking as a duplicate of bug 264789 . That bug report includes a workaround.
The kernel bug that caused this problem should be fixed in Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty), so do feel free to try it.
If you still have this problem under 9.04, please log in to Launchpad.net and remove the duplicate flag.
If the problem is resolved, then do nothing; Launchpad Janitor will close out the bug report.
