Bug Description

Ubuntu jammy canary ISO on virtualbox (host OS Lubuntu 20.04)
- hp 8200 elite sff (i5-2400, 8gb, nvidia quadro 600)

I Boot up VM & start installer, but I can't proceed as no goback or continue buttons; pressing ENTER on english does nothing etc.

see picture.

on power-up box booted using 800x600; on switching the resolution to 1920x1080 the same window suddenly had a 'type here to test' , go.back & continue buttons, which didn't exist whilst 800x600 resolution.
