Check CD for defects: Dialog goes up and down

[Thomas Hotz]

Steps to reproduce:

1) Feisty Alternate CD

2) Choose "Check CD for defects"

3) Then you will see that the Dialog goes up and down

I think the dialog should stay in the middle of the screen during the hole CD- ROM integrity check. Otherwise for me this looks unprofessional.

I agree, it looks unprofessional and it might harm people with epilepsy.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It isn't particularly clear to me which dialog you are referring to, could you elaborate? Additionally, do you happen to know if this is still an issue with Hardy or Intrepid? Thanks in advance.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

Ah, ok. This is with the alternate CD and not the live CD. I can confirm this still happens with Intrepid. The vertical size of the box keeps changing due to the scanned paths wrapping round on to a new line.

yep it does with hardy.

Setting Incomplete - will try with latest Intrepid daily shortly

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

Confirmed now with the latest Intrepid Alpha daily ISO "intrepid-alternate-amd64.iso" dated 13-Aug-08.

This seems to be a duplicate of bug 31919.

I'm marking this as a duplicate of 31919 per mpt's finding.

Well spotted Matthew!
