Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Using Kubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) dailys, ubiquity is extremely slow. This may be caused by a very high cpu usage or so it looked. When I click on "next" in the installer, it takes a lot of time, as it takes a long time to do anything like editing partitions etc.. Whenever I minimize the installer I hear my hard drive working as it should and when I maximize ubiquity again I see it has worked its way to the next step, so it worked properly whenever it was minimized. In the end, I find myself always minimizing and maximizing the installer to get through the installation process.
I have seen the same issue with Kubuntu 9.10 but it was not as bad as it is with 10.04. It may be an issue related to the opensource radeon driver or the other X/Mesa elements. I am using an AMD Radeon HD 4850.

I can confirm this with ubiquity 2.2.3. This is specific to the KDE frontend.
