Bug Description

Binary package hint: plymouth

I think this has been crashing as long as I've been running Natty
(ironically since April 1, but no joke)

And finally reporting it. Takes a while on boot for it to show up,
maybe because the report is megabytes big...

Just booting gets this, and probably every time...

New kernel is doing it. Have a few kernel modules
compiled special for this hardware a MacBookPro
and an iPhone4 usually charging when plugged in...

Other than that, just trying to use Natty,
like any other OS version...

YMMV ;-)
