What browser do you use? Do you have any browser or GNOME extensions installed? Do you know what zygote is? Do you have a Software Update dialog/window displaying on your screen? Is your Ubuntu up to date? In theterminal, what does thetopcommand show?

To check for GNOME extensions, check extensions.gnome.org/local

What Chrome extensions do you have? Can you run without them for a while, to test?

"We cannot detect a running copy of GNOME on this system, so some parts of the interface may be disabled. See our troubleshooting entry for more information." from the link

It looks like Chrome, or one of its extensions that you've installed, are causing your crazy syslog files.
Either:
Temporarily disable ALL Chrome extensions and see if the problem still occurs.
Temporarily run with Firefox and see if the problem still occurs.
