I had similar problem. I couldn't make it work on ubuntu gutsy.
When i moved my installation to ubuntu server (no gui) with root account enabled it worked with no errors.

I think that alfresco or tomcat have some problems running on ubuntu when starting without root account enabled.

My setup is Ubuntu Server (NO GUI). MySQL database and the latest alfresco package.
Root account is enabled.
So its similar to what you had when you got it working.
On the other hand, I had installed in Ubuntu Gutsy Desktop (WITH GUI) and it worked flawlessly. Infact, that is the easiest installation I've ever done!
But coming now to the server, it gives me errors!

Working on server, not working with gui!
