(Resend. Wednesday's send did not get through.) Occasionally when I boot my machine it hangs at the Ubuntu screen. Pressing the power button is the only cure. Restarting usually goes fine. Sometimes there is an on-screen message which goes much too fast to read. I managed to take a video of the screen once when this occurred. When I get the failure, I get the usual startup message: Boot from hd0.0 ext3 ... That stays on the screen for what seems like an unusually long time, then the message "...nForce2_Smbus 0000:00:01.1: Error probing SMB2. Starting up ..." appeared.
I looked in the dmesg for this, and I find: ... [ 27.564121] udev: starting version 151 [ 27.568555] Adding 5574512k swap on /dev/sda5.

This error message appears in dmesg every time, with and without the failure, so it may be unrelated. Ideas?
