Hi,

This bug makes it hard to change language after installation. Please
check if you have it too, and if so, please add that it affects you!

-o-

I found it, when I had installed Lubuntu with the One Button Installer
(and a text operating Ubuntu Mini system to drive it). It was installed
and is running within 128 Mb RAM now (via the boot option mem).

I ran with full memory, 1.25GB, for a while to update-upgrade and do
some more testing. And of course, it's a huge difference in performance,
but I could run Firefox and view this bug at Launchpad also with 128 MB
RAM. The following output from free was taken after Firefox was closed.
While Firefox was running cpu, ram and swap were all near or above 100 :-P

I can upload a screenshot somewhere, if someone wants to see it (we are
