Public bug reported:

Ringtail 3.8.0-6 i386 booted up and was running Firefox wireless when
this error appeared.  Note I have update turned off in software
preferences since I update most days when I want to and don't appreciate
update crashing in to what I'm doing.  Of course for general
distribution on stable Ubuntu the default would prevail.

Now the only reason update would be active is for security notification
of course.
