I found that post, and all of my locale settings are en_US.UTF-8.
I've tried reinstalling my graphics drivers as suggested here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/80914/how-reinstall-the-default-graphics-drivers
I've tried removing ~/.ICEauthority
I've tried export QT_NO_GLIB=1
I've tried installing ttf-mscorefonts-installer

Still, after a few minutes of just leaving the screen on the menu, after a
fresh reboot, the CPU spikes to 100% and gives those errors.
