Problem seems to be resolved (see above) and was caused by aggressive
timing parameters ("ASUS Optimal" settings) and possible weak or bad
memory chip. Once BIOS parameter was changed to "ASUS Normal" settings
the problem resolved itself and no more GPF's were output after burning
many more CD's/DVD's. Hardware testing will have to be done after 14.04
releases to verify weak/bad hardware is replaced and I will be more
aware that this type of GPF indicates possible BIOS/Hardware issues
before I raise another bug report of this nature.

Please close this bug report and thanks for the quick response and help,

B.Bogert

Title:
  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I was burning a CD using Brasero when the Unity desktop died and I
  ended up back at the lightdm login prompt. This was the first problem
  of this kind since running Trusty and occured since the latest update
  on 3/29/2014. The system had been completely stable up to this point.
  Brasero was in the process of verifying the checksum when the problem
  occured. Brasero version is 3.10.0, kernel version is
  3.13.0-20-generic. This is an ASUS Sabertooth motherboard with 4Ghz
  AMD 8 core and 16Gb of memory.  This is my daily use computer and was
  up for several days before the GPF occured. I am using the updates ATI
  proprietary driver from the Ubuntu repository.

  Let me know if I can provide any more information for you .

  Thanks,
  B.Bogert
