Hi, lubuntu-desktop-amd64 16th Sept build with 512Mb in Vbox I observed the following.. 'Try Lubuntu' started fine, but completely hangs when asked to reboot. 'Install Lubuntu' worked fine, but hangs when rebooting at the end of the install process. Doing a force reset re-starts the install, but

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Lubuntu 13.10 beta

Hi Phill and Ali, It looks like it could be a problem with low RAM. The installer cannot not handle it in a proper way, so it 'hangs'. Fortunately it has already finished writing the installation to disk. I did not mention it before, but I was 'managed to' make it hang earlier (in VBox), and then

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Lubuntu 13.10 beta

Just thinking aloud what if it is zram closing down and confusing the virtualisation? That would explain why it does not affect alternate (it doesn't use zram). I think it needs confirming on 'real' kit as we did have the desktop installing happily on 512Mb when done with hardware. Regards,

I have downloaded the Lubuntu 13.10 beta (amd64), from the daily builds branch, as iso. I am trying to install that within virtualbox. That goes nice, until the screen where I am asked my name, user-name, password, so on. There, tapping on the keyboard has no effect!, so I am unable to write anyth
