Bug Description

I booted up from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20221020/kinetic-desktop-amd64.iso in Qemu with

  qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4.2G -enable-kvm -smp 6 -hda *img -cdrom *iso

Ubiquity showed up but it was mostly blank, only decorations (title bar, close button) and orange circles were present.

I waited about 2 minutes in hope that it would load the remaining widgets, but it didn't, so I pressed the close button and the environment crashed — a dialog saying something like "the installer experienced an irrecoverable error, will drop to a desktop session" appeared, and so it did, at which point I could file this ubuntu-bug ubiquity.

I attempted to reproduce this with the above command line and had no luck. Was using the released ubuntu-22.10-desktop-amd64.iso. Would you retest?
