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.

Please note that the dmesg text in your bug reports shows BIOS errors; all your reported bugs are memory related. Please try:

- BIOS upgrade, your BIOS and ACPI firmwares appear to be broken in several ways
- run memtest86 overnight to see if your memory, memory controller, or CPU have an easily-correctable problem

Thanks

As part of the big bug clear up for 16.04 LTS I am marking this bug as Wont Fix. These types of crasher are better handled by errors.ubutnu.com which can collate similar crash reports to help us identify persitent bugs rather than one-off crashes. Sorry we are not able to help with this specific issue. If you are still experiencing this crash, please re-open the bug and add the tag “desktop-bugscrub-reopen”. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BigDesktopBugScrub for more information.
