I get this same warning when playing Youtube/Vimeo videos on Firefox (which also play very choppy).

[Michael Bernstein (mwb)]

I get this same error either in idle (just having booted, window manager is up, user is logged in) or during apport uploading details of an application error (sequence is not clear).

[Chester (cd-pobox)]

UPDATE: after I removed Sun's JDK (which I had downloaded from http://java.sun.com) the problem disappeared. Since then I installed the JDK using the standard package management (Synaptic/APT) and so far I had two entire days without any warning.

[philip (philip-tidepool)]

I have what seems to be the same problem on my Acer Aspire One AOA110, and it shuts me down intermittently almost every day. My system log fills up with messages like the ones in the attachment. They are being added so fast that the system slows down to a near halt; the network is completely inaccessible.

I'm mostly writing to increase the visibility of this bug: seeing my main problem assigned to "nobody" is disconcerting. Thanks to whoever picks up this issue.

[mrnmart (mrnmart)]

Hi Philip

My name is Mariano.

There is a long time dont receive similar errors, i remember i had updated
kernel, mine is:

mrn@mrn-one:~$ uname -a
Linux mrn-one 2.6.31-15-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 14:54:29 UTC 2009
i686 GNU/Linux

Make sure you have the latest BIOS version from acer:

ftp://ftp.work.acer-euro.com/netbook/aspire_one_110/bios/

Anyway the errors in my case doesnt were everyday, just sometimes.

Best regards

Thanks, Mariano.

My kernel is up to date. "uname -a" returns
  Linux min 2.6.31-17-generic #54-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 16:20:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

My BIOS when reporting the bug was version 3309, which matches the newest one on the acer-euro
site you link to. Other acer sites offer an even newer one (3310), which I installed just now. However,
the release notes and internet commentary about BIOS 3310 suggest that it makes changes only
to subsystems that do not affect wireless. I will write back with a status update after using the fresh
BIOS for a day or so.

Thanks again.

[WeatherGod (ben-v-root)]

antesdelalba, thank you for taking a moment to contribute to this bug report. I see that you are not running the most up-to-date kernel. Could you please check your update manager to make sure that your computer is fully updated? Also note that while most updates do not require reboots, kernel updates do require reboots for them to take effect.

If this error occurs again with the latest updates, please resubmit the kernel log.

[ddave (dseares)]

Same as Chester. I found that removing Sun Java and replacing it with OpenJDK solved this issue.

[kingbob (scott-mcdougall)]

Sun Jave was never installed, but after going from the current mainline kernel (2/20/10) to 2.6.31 my system is completely stable, where before I was having this issue left and right upon boot.

[Jeremy Foshee (jeremyfoshee)]

NickThweatt,
     Can you confirm this behavior in the latest Lucid Alpha 3? I see from kingbob that he has seen the issue disappear in 2.6.31.

kingbob,
    Would you mind verifying via live image that this is still the case for the current Lucid Alpha or daily?

Thanks!

~JFo

[matthieuuu (nardin-yopmail)]

hi everybody

I have what seems to be the same problem on my Acer Aspire One AOA110 too, like philip...

If somebody needs more information, do not hesitate !

[skinni (wini425)]

HELLO everyone, i m so new to linux, and i hope i can learn more of how to fix this kernel errors...it started the red notifiacation on top of the bar and saying the computer is having kernel problem, so i clicked on it and report and ended up here...

it started after firefox browser said "your computer should be shut down now, and restart", so i did, and when restarted, the red warning notification started appeared...

i came from the mac OSX 10.5 background, and did know how to fix kernel attack on mac, but just really a newbie (totally not even comfortable to use terminal...)

and would love to learn from everyone here to fix this problem together and get into linux ...

came from a graphic design background and if you have anything about graphic, i can provide my skills and knowledge :)

thanks a lot in advance
skinni

Since like 3 weeks sometimes i unplug the ZTE MF626 usb 3G modem and the whole system crashes and restarts itself. This is very very very bad. Does anyone experimented something like this? this never happened to me since 8.04 hardy heron beta i think. i reported this bug as "ubuntu-bug linux" but i did not know how to report it anyway. I do not know what log file i have to check to see what happened.
