Shane, Are all the boots in kern.log from the default Maverick boot? They seem to be using the Maverick kernel, but I also noticed you suspended in a couple of them, which would be hard to do if you can't boot :)
It seems ureadahead is taking all of your memory, and then both it and plymouth are being killed to free some of that memory. From kern.log, most recent entry (on the bottom): [ 3.994657] ureadahead invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0xd0, order=0, oom_adj=0 [ 3.994664] ureadahead cpuset=/ mems_allowed=0 [ 3.994669] Pid: 371, comm: ureadahead Not tainted 2.6.35-10-generic #15-Ubuntu [ 3.994672] Call Trace: ...

It also looks like you don't have any swap space. Is this true? Did you not set up a swap partition when you installed Maverick? If there's no swap space, then that's why you're running out of memory, and you should create a swap partition. A new version of ureadahead was also uploaded recently, ureadahead 0.100.0-6, which fixes bug 501715. This bug caused ureadahead to use much more memory than it should. I would make sure you are running this updated version with 'dpkg -s ureadahead', and if not please 'sudo apt- get update && sudo apt-get upgrade". -- conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs VESA VGA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/609044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
