Public bug reported:

Downloaded latest daily build of UB 32-bit a couple of hours ago.
Checked SHA256sum, installed from Live USB.

The laptop I'm currently testing on is a 2005-era, 1.6Ghz Pentium M
processor with 1GB RAM.

Post-installation, upon booting from my hard disk, there is a long
period of blank screen, followed by the Budgie-branded splash screen &
the "5 dots" animation, followed by a shorter but still significant
period of completely blank screen, before finally arriving at the login
screen. All the while, my laptop indicates hard disk activity, so it's
not as if the system was hanging.

I mention this as new users might be a bit confused or less than
confident that their system is working properly in the absence of some
visual reassurance that the system is starting.

As a side comment, my impression was that the installation process for
this daily build was slower than UB daily build I tried on the same
hardware about a month ago.


Thanks,
Ken.
