Vlad, a couple of points:

This machine has a lot of memory (more than 1GB, as far as I can tell from reading your logs) but it does not have very much swap (less than 0.5GB). swap space can be used for hibernation - would it be possible for you to add more swap space (if you have enough free disk space) so that you have at least as much swap space as memory?

It might be useful to boot with "quiet" disabled, so that we get complete logs. Try the following:

1. start a terminal window and run the command

    sudo logrotate -f

2. Reboot the machine;

3. When the grub menu appears, use the arrow keys to move to the first entry in the list (if there is no menu, hit esc when the "grub loading" line appears - this will have a countdown timer, typically a few seconds).

4. type e to edit the boot options

5. use the arrow keys to select the kernel line (second line, usually)

6. type e to edit the kernel options

7. use the arrow keys to get to "quiet" and the backspace or delete key to erase the word quiet

8. hit esc

9. type b to boot the system

10. when you get to your regular user session, hibernate the machine

11. either resume of reboot - just reboot normally

12. attach /var/log/syslog to this report - please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingUbiquity/AttachingLogs. Please DO NOT put the log file in the body of the comment, this makes it very difficult to read the bug report.
