Critical Error Guru Meditation on new ubuntu install

[Kizzle]

I've recently created a new Ubuntu 14.04.03 environment, and am getting regular critical error crashes which result in the Guru Meditation dialog. The dialog is somewhat sparse on details, but does point me to this forum with the instruction to attach the two log files (one log, one screenshot).

Can anyone point me toward some further troubleshooting actions?

00:09:12.578241 !!                 Guru Meditation 1103 (VINF_EM_DBG_HYPER_ASSERTION)

This looks like you're running out of hyperheap memory. Could you try bumping the HyperHeap size from the default 1.25 MiB to say 3 MiB?

1) Poweroff the VM.
2) Enter the command:

VBoxManage setextradata <VMname> "VBoxInternal/MM/cbHyperHeap" "3145728"

3) Start the VM.

Note: the value you specify is in bytes (here, 3145728 bytes = 3 MiB). If you continue to get this guru, try bumping this value even higher. The MMHyper code rounds this to 4096 bytes boundaries.
