Bug Description

I tried to install Natty in virtualbox 4.04 on a Windows 7 machine. The 3D acceleration from vbox was ON, 128 mb on the virtual video card, and 1536 mb on the virtual RAM. All other settings were defaults.

After config, when the actual installation started, the progress bar was invisible. I was still able to navigate through the features presentation. After 30 minutes like this I quit the installation. I hope this bug is only linked to virtualbox and not to general installation.

Can you please try to reproduce this bug in debug mode? Press 'Try Ubuntu' then open a terminal and type `ubiquity -d`. When you get to this point where you can no longer see the progress section, run `sudo apport-collect 767722`.

Thanks!

I am getting this now too on hardware. Cant seem to install Ubuntu on a new thinkpad edge due to this (I am not sure when/if the installation finishes)

Which version of Ubiquity do you use (run "cat /var/log/installer/version" from the command line)?
