I will add my 2 cents if this helps. I am running 12.10 . If I use the 3.3 kernel I never see this problem. With the 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 kernels my ext4 file system will suddenly become read-only. This happens at least once a day. It was happening to both my boot and data partitions, but, I reformatted my boot to ext3 and now this only effects the data. I would reformat that to ext3 as well except it's rather large. So far I have not experienced any data loss, just need to reboot .
