I tried the alternate installer CD for Lucid on a HP 2510p. The bug is present there. I ended up using the standard installer DVD. But we have several older laptops in the department that would not take the standard installer CD because of limited memory. For such laptops the alternate installer CD is the only option to get a modern Ubuntu version installed. For this reason we look forward to the fix for this bug.
