chet, as per http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1478 an update is available for your BIOS (MB71.0039.B0E). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and just provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette .

For example, usually restarting lightdm with the above configure and the modules loaded will usually cause the panic. Also if one is in a high memory usage load the panic will also happen (for me with eclipse and a virtual machine running) If the adapter and monitor are not configured or attached the same actions will not cause the panic.
