I installed Ubuntu on a HP Mini 210, and everything was fine. However, after using the laptop for a while I got the error:
panic occurred switching back to text console
What could be the reason and what can I do about it?

It seems it's a bug in kernel 3.0 and it happens in many netbooks. I've read that if you upgrade your kernel version up to the 3.1 branch it won't happen again.

It sounds as if there might be an issue with your graphics driver or Xorg. I seem to recall having experienced something similar. If you press alt+ctrl+f1 you should be able to log in. There, run sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart
. That should close all your apps and the window system should restart. If it doesn't, I'm afraid you'll need to reboot.
