Bug confirmed on a Samsung NF310 (Shark) Using ISO 10.04 Beta 2, moved to a USB stick using Ubuntu usb creator
Ubiquity seems to be failing when clicking on Next, after entering 1st user (admin) informations. No matter if files copying just started, or if I am waiting all files to be copied: when clicking on Next step. No matter if wifi is connected or not, and if "download upgrade when installing" is checked or not. Will try "sudo rm /usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-webcam.py" tonight before launching installation. I am replying to this bug, as all other duplicates are not assigned, and a workaround has been provided with this bug. Just 2 things: - Duplicate Bug #909179 is assigned to "Canonical Foundations Team", which is a bit confusing. Who is really working on this bug that we may help ? - This bug is tagged as high, unfortunately not Critical: BUT IT SHOULD ! According to all duplicates, showing issues on many laptops (from many vendors), it is blocking many users from being able to install Precise ! Just have a look at this: http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/jamies-mostly-linux-stuff-10006480/ubuntu-1204-beta-2-i-still-dont-like-it-10025792/ "However, it would not load on the Samsung NF310 - it gets to the step where it should want me to choose a picture for my account (or take a picture with the built-in camera) and it just hangs forever. I have no idea why" Cheers Fred -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966294 Title: Ubiquity loops forever from ubiquity_webcam_play Status in “gstreamer0.10” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “gstreamer0.10” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: Every time I install ubuntu on this hardware with ubiquity it hangs before the camera loads and after clicking continue on the "choose a user" screen.
