Hi,
I know full well that I'm no longer allowed on this area, but the thought
of Ubiquity being launched with such a, IMHO, serious bug does lead me to
ask that the bug be allocated to some one and the testers are asked as to
how we can provide data.
I'm going to step out of line and explain a li
Hi,
a very simplistic background... Ubiquity, the desk top installer, needs
more RAM to run the install than lubuntu itself needs to run. To allow
people to use the DE installer, lubuntu runs a specific job to enable zram
before the swap partition is actually created. Prior to that, the only way

Hi Phil,
I spent the morning testing the Live ISO (via usb flash drive).
The only boot parameter I needed was to get the correct color depth.
For my radeon card that is the usual:
live video=radeonfb:1920x1080-32@60
I submitted three passed tests on the iso tracker page:

Btw. One tip for chromium users who suffer from limited memory. You can force chromium to run as a single process with the commandline --single-process . This can save tons of ram when using many tabs but I am afraid I experienced some drawbacks on some sites. (rendering issues or pages not refresh

Builds were a little slow in showing up but I see everything is in there
now. The 21:00 timeframe was only for the freeze, not for builds to be
available. Remember to expect new builds occuring into next week as some
things are still landing due to freeze shakeout. Thanks for testing
everyone!

I have to say again it is not an good option to set vm.swappiness to 0. Lowering it from the 60 to 25 is the one thing I would recommend. vm.vfs_cache_pressure setting to 50 means more ram is used for caching. So contraproductive you want more free RAM. I would recommend this setting to 100 (basica

Not 100% sure, but I think LZMA is used. Unfortunately, I can't find the
scripts that are used to generate the (L)Ubuntu images - I'm looking for
this for weeks now! :-)
I think, Julien has done the best possible, so that seems to be a dead end.
