  Ubiquity crashes when the user click on 'Forward' at step 'Who are you'
  This affects only amd64.

  Possible cause:

  Tested in a VM

  TEST CASE:

  3. Double-Click on 'Install Ubuntu'
  4. Run through the installation steps

  Result:

  No crash report from apport.

  ProblemType: Bug
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04
  Package: ubiquity (not installed)
  ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-1.28-generic 2.6.38-rc2
  Uname: Linux 2.6.38-1-generic i686
  Architecture: i386
  Date: Mon Jan 31 11:44:55 2011

   PATH=(custom, user)

  SourcePackage: ubiquity

  WORKAROUND:
  Open a Terminal window with Ctrl+Alt+T and do sudo apt-get purge ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu before starting the installer. This will cause the installation progress window to become very small, but avoid the crash.

  In Xubuntu, please open a terminal, using either the shortcut in the
  panel or Menu button -> Accessories -> Terminal and do sudo apt-get
  purge ubiquity-slideshow-xubuntu before starting the installer.
