Public bug reported:
Release: Quantal (20120726/alpha3)
Architecture: i386 (but also seen on amd64)
Using the alternate CD installation works ok, but rebooting into the
install I am lucky if I get anything on the screen that resembles the
lightdm screen (screenshot of that case will be attached). There were
also cases of just white or just black. Login is impossible and
occasionally everything goes downhill. Ssh login is possible or booting
into textual mode.
