I received an e-mail from <email address hidden> with a subject of "A new
build of Lubuntu Alternate i386 is ready for testing!" - referring to
version: 20171017.1, with a link to http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatra
cker/milestones/383/builds/159145/testcases

This was downloaded by me:-
ian@turing:~/isos/2017-10-17.1$ md5sum artful-alternate-i386.iso
6beffce30b77f7c8105bde2c4e4d69b8 artful-alternate-i386.iso

I created install media by running Startup Disc Creator and the above iso.

Booted my Samsung NC10 and installed the lubuntu 32-bit version. During
installation, everything was text mode and O.K. On booting into the system,
as soon as it switched from text mode to graphics mode, I experienced this
graphics corruption:-

Left Hand Side 80% of screen black with a blue of white and some blue at
the top
Right Hand Side 20% of screen OK.

I'm exhausted. I'll do those further tests tomorrow evening.

BW,

Ian
