I have this problem with sony vgn-n11s kernel 2.6.24-17-generic and dualboot with Win-XP. When the problem occurs I push power button to stop the laptop. Then I boot into Win-XP and let win do a disk check-and repair on C: drive. Win does the check next time it boots up. After Win did the C: drive check and the obligatory reboot, I shut down the laptop. Then I start it up again and everything is fine and the system boots automaticaly into Ubuntu. Until after +/- 30 days or so and as many or more boots (only Ubuntu) It happens again and I must do the same 'trick' once more.
