I am using Ubuntu 13.10 32-bit with Intel Core i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz × 4 and keep receiving the message

System program problem detected

at startup.

This is a recent installation. I'm new to Ubuntu and still learning what's inside. What can I do to address this error message?

If you want to view the error report go to the /var/crash/ directory and there you will find the error reports which you can view with any text editor.

If you can't figure out the problem and the message keeps coming up:

  • It is possible that this error only happened once, but the error report got stuck and pops-up on every boot. So just delete the error reports from /var/crash/ (you will need root privileges for some, so use the sudo rm /var/crash/* command). If after this the error message doesn't come back then all is good.

  • If the error message is not from a stuck report, but the errors are constantly happening and you can't figure out the problem on your own then submit a bugreport. See How do I report a bug?
