Public bug reported:
I'll add more details shortly
QA-test of Ubuntu hirsute (desktop) RC on
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
** My error
I intended to hit "Install" and not "Try" but the desktop started in
live mode, so I assume that was my error in selection... Because I was
in 'try' mode I adjusted the display setup so it matched my setup. That
was only change made, before clicking on "Install" icon on desktop &
returning to the intended QA-test install.
** Expected result
As I progress thru dialogs in my Manual Partitioning install of Ubuntu
Desktop, I don't expect the desktop wallpaper to change at all.
** Actual Result
The background wallpaper starting top left corner of my "upper" display
started switching from normal background & going bright-blue. The area
of blue kept growing on each dialog press in ubiquity until both
displays were all blue.
I continued with the ubiquity dialogs (just clicked INSTALL NOW) but a
number of clicks back all background wallpaper was gone, and I've two
black monitors (no wallpaper is shown).
If I right-click background & look at "Change Wallpaper" it shows my
current still as the default.
I can change it to some others.. but selecting the default hippo
wallpaper or some? images and this firefox window now appears enlarged
as my background..
Install (ubiquity) window appears perfectly normal (install is now
copying files)
This issue is cosmetic only.
