I get a similar error when loading up since upgrading to Intrepid from Hardy (goes by a little fast for me to read mind). Checking /var/log/messages it looks similar though:
Checking aperture... No AGP bridge found Node 0: aperture @ 20000000 size 32 MB Mapping aperture over 65536 KB of RAM @ 20000000 System is an AMD 64 with 4GB of RAM. It is not prevented boot up though so is not critical for me. The main reason I'm posting is that I noticed this bug under Hardy: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/203537 This related to the Suspend option ruining the ext3 file system on AMD64 systems. Pretty scary stuff. Now I do recall that the error on bootup made reference to GART IOMMU. In the other bug, it notes that "the kernel option "iommu=soft" fixes this problem". My question is, are the two bugs related? In other words, in order to resolve the (admittedly very worrying) filesystem corruption bug, does Intrepid ship with 'safe' GART IOMMU kernel options? -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.
