This seems to (have been) a known bug affecting AMD Athlon XP 2600+ to 2800+
Mine is a 2700+
As can be seen on Bug #710582 :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/710582
People was saying that removing slideshow package (on XUbuntu or Kubuntu) prior
to installing was fixing problem.
Not tried it.
Seems they did (supposedly) resolved it in webkit (I can only suppose slideshow
use webkit).
Now, because of my graphics card I am in fallback mode... and I am not sure it
did not trigger the bug:
in install_misc.py in pulse function near:
try:
if os.environ['UBIQUITY_FRONTEND'] != 'debconf_ui':
self.db.progress('SET', int(self.percent))
except debconf.DebconfError:
return False
I have seen also, still not resolved bug:
I consider bug #1309340 linked
