Bug description:
Hi,
just as a quick response:
I've installed the new 17.10 Desktop for testing in a virtual machine
(VirtualBox 5.1.20 running on MacOS), and while it installed smoothly
and booted instantly, there's a problem with the graphics (probably
related to wayland): Especially when moving the mouse or starting new
programs the screen flashes white every few seconds or sometimes shows
just a blank grey screen for about a second. Not suited for regular
work.
But I have no clue which component precisely is causing that problem.
regards
