Public bug reported:
I put Maverick Beta UNR on an SD card, ran it in my Aspire One D250
laptop without installing. Was just trying it out, running mahjongg,
running rhythmbox (with no music), trying to find the control panel
(hiding in greyed-out stuff that scrolled off the left margin), etc, but
it kept hanging for seconds and then bouncing the few windows around. I
was not connected to Internet; not running a web browser. Nothing huge
should be running. I started a terminal and dmesg showed that I had
been hit by the oom-killer three times! Mutter killed rhythmbox, then
killed ssh-agent, then killed gnome-session.
Clearly the system should boot up and do simple stuff from the LiveCD
without crashing for lack of memory on a 1GB laptop!
I tried to submit this from the laptop itself using ubuntu-bug -p linux (as
suggested in the page where I'm typing this), and it let
me type everything in, and then when I submitted the bug, it said "Timeout
error: Sorry, something just went wrong in Launchpad." and threw away
everything I'd typed. So this is all the bug report you're gonna get. Dmesg
really did show three oom-kills, I promise you, and I submitted it, but your
recommended procedure for submitting did not work.
