Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

security vulnerability: yes → no

Hi nicklas,

The warning reported here, "WARNING: ECC is NOT currently enabled by the BIOS. Module will NOT be loaded." looks to be a duplicate of bug 422536 so I am marking it as such. Please continue to track this issue at that report. Note that this is just a harmless warning. If you are experiencing any other issues you thought were related to this, please open a new bug by running 'ubuntu-bug linux' from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). Thanks.
