Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

If you install the new ubuntu 10.10. and on the last page of the installer you enter a username with an uppercase letter in it, it shows you a green tick beneath it but it makes the next button gray and unusable.. there is no way to know whats the problem, it just stands there and you dont know why you cant go on.. i actually did the installation 3 times before finding out what the problem was...

and the bug reporting of ubuntu is also stupid, back in the days you could just say "report bug" on the website, now you have to generate useless information that in no way is related to the bug for beeing able to report one.. do you guys think that this is a motivating factor to make me contribute??
