Bug Description

Every time I log in to my new installation of Xubuntu 24.04 (daily ISO) after a reboot, I get an error message that says, "System program problem detected." Clicking either Cancel or Report Problem only dismisses the pop-up without any further action. This has occurred on multiple computers. This began with the first boot after installation and occurs at each subsequent reboot upon logging in. Logging out and back in does not cause the error.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whoopsie/+bug/2048914/+attachment/5738098/+files/apport.log shows thermald having crashed. If you disable the thermald service with `sudo systemctl disable thermald; sudo systemctl stop thermald` does the problem persist after the next couple of logins?

I have the `thermald` service disabled using the commands you provided, and after 5 reboots and 1 shut down, the problem still persists.

After installing the Noble Daily ISO (Version 20240125), I did not receive this error message. I'll keep testing, but hopefully, this is on its way to being fixed.
