I forgot to mention, that while my system doesn't freeze, things start
to stop working.  It is hard to describe, programs will just not work or
crash.  Currently, chrome froze, so I'm using firefox to post all this.

I will really appreciate any help that can be provided.  I'm also
curious what the kernel oops means.  What exaclty is going wrong?

Title:
  14.04 kernel oops

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  hey guys.  So I have been getting this kernel oops on an old laptop on
  14.04.  It is a laptop new to my posession, so I don't have a lot of
  experience with it.  I believe it was running mainly windows xp
  before, and had an old but unused Ubuntu install on it as well.  I
  first encountered it when trying to wipe the machine and install 14.04
  xubuntu from scratch.

  I assumed that maybe it is because the laptop is old, maybe the memory
  was bad, I dunno.  I replaced the memory, same error.

  I installed the server edition of ubuntu, and the install actually
  worked.  This current bug is being filed from that install, where I
  installed xubuntu-desktop^ from the command line.  I installed google-
  chrome, and then tried to open chrome, then the oops again.

  I have also installed 10.04 and 12.04, and both installs went fine.
  Since the 14.04 kernel oops happened early in the install process, I'm
  inclined to believe that those earlier versions are working, and that
  this is a regression from 12.04->14.04.

  I will attach a copy of dmesg which shows the oops, in case it isn't
  already included.
