The installer works fine but I'm afraid the installation is unusable on my AC100. I have it set to auto-logon and it always gets to the Unity desktop and takes some initial input, but then two times out of three it locks up and won't respond to the keyboard or mouse. When it does keep going, the mouse often loses sync and jumps all over the place when you try to move it. Switching to a VT and back sometimes clears this. I grabbed the image on Friday. I'll look further - it seems mildly more reliable if I switch to a VT early, wait for the desktop to finish loading, then switch back. -- Michael _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ac100 Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ac100 More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
