Hi Jeremy,

It's most helpful to the kernel developers if you can capture the entire
contents of the Kernel panic.  Can you try installing the linux-
crashdump package which can often help capture the contents of a kernel
panic, especially in the event of a sudden system freeze/lockup.  You
will first need to install the linux-crashdump package, the apport-
retrace package, and then reboot the system.

sudo apt-get install apport-retrace linux-crashdump
sudo reboot

Once installed and rebooted, shutdown the system to trigger the panic.
Upon the next reboot, run the following command from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal):

sudo apport-retrace -s -R /var/crash/linux-image*-.crash >
/tmp/crash.log

This will hopefully have collects the contents of the panic and write it
to /tmp/crash.log .  Please attach the resulting "crash.log" file to
this bug report.  For additional information, please refer to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/CrashdumpRecipe .  Thanks in advance.
