Good to know.
I just tried to install on a PC (not a laptop which unexpectedly
became available) and the graphics crashes: screen is totally
garbled when trying to boot from the DVD at the first screen
(selection whether to try or install). During the boot I got some
console messages about GPU lockup switching to fb??? (didn't catch
the whole thing). I don't really know whether the system is still
responsive cause I can't click anything.
Graphics card is an NVidia Quadro 410 running on an AMD Athlon II
CPU (Dell Inspiron 570)

Hi all,
tested the scroll down on a Dell XT2 Convertible and an
logitech RX 300 Mouse. The windows do not jump on my
installation. Gnumeric is not jumping also.
Regards

I couldn't install on real hardware, only on VirtualBox.
Couple of observations
The installer DVD still displays 13.10. Not sure when this is
planned to change, just thought I mention it. I was confused the
first time I installed alpha 2, I epxected something like "14.04
A2"
There seems to be something funny going with the mouse scroll
wheel: if I scroll down too fast, the menu first jumps up before
it scrolls down. As a result, when at the bottom of a list and
still scrolling it keeps looping over the last few entries. Very
annoying to me. I noticed it first in the applet list trying to
install a new panel applet. When I moved the mousewheel real
fast in the file open dialog from gnumeric, I could make the
main gnumeric window jump to different places on the desktop.
This is VirtualBox, though, so it may be a virtualBox driver
problem but I have not seen that in other version of xubuntu
under virtual box.
Othrwise it looks great.
I do have a question:
is anybody testing the behavior of NVidia Optimus support
(bumblebee)with the kernel that gets released? I did see some
posts that bumblebee has a probem with kernel 3.13 and bumblebee
not working would throw me a curve ball when I need to upgrade
my main machine because as 12.04 EOL.
Ditto with wireless. In all my previous updates wireless support
never worked out of the box.
I realise this is probably the ubuntu folks and beyond xubuntu's
scope but may be a consideration for kernel selection (I read a
lot of bumblebee problems with kernel 3.13).
