Greetings,

I am getting the same message. It started on my installation of 12.04, and I first noticed iti after I installed ClamAV and havp.
When I did a fresh install of 12.10 with ClamAV and havp, itcontinued to appear, and still does after the kernel update.
To see if it would help, today I uninstalled havp and restarted. The error box reappeared with the message "init: plymouth-stop pre-start process (1906) terminated with status 1". While I had the terminal open to read dmesg, the error box popped up again. So I refreshed dmesg, and the latest complaint is "eth0: no IPv6 routers present". I have IPv6 set for "ignore", in case that matters. Also, in case it matters, several lines previous to the "init: plymouth-stop..." error message is always the line "init: failsafe main process (739) killed by TERM signal".

On two occasions--weeks apart--the boot process has stalled with a black screen showing some lines that look like content of dmesg, forcing me to restart. Sorry I cannot remember what the last lines were.

The error box has been popping open frequently, at various times, whether I am online or not, and I cannot associate it with any specific program. I read in a Ubuntu forum that the cure for the error box appearing had to do with apparmor notifications not being disabled in this version and the instruction was to clear the # in front of the line that controls this. When I checked, the line in my system was already cleared.
One of the things that bothers me most about this error is the box that requests the password to send the notice to Ubuntu about the error. It is not in the graphical style of this version--its looks like it came from a much older version when boxes had sharply square corners. Even the warning box itself is nearly a perfect square, and not rectangular. Most of the time I do not click it at all (fearing it is a hacker attempt to obtain my password) but hit [ESC] instead. It is not possible to get a screenshot, but I did take a photo of box with my camera, if anyone is interested in seeing it.

I have only been using Ubuntu for about 8 months, and I apologize for not being able to be more specific in my description of the error.
