Comment 1 for bug 1644301

I was able to run unity8-session snap on ubuntu-core in a vm
However, I was not using the unity8-session snap from the edge channel but the silo
this particular build
https://launchpad.net/~unity-team/+snap/unity8-session-silo/+build/11182

it also takes well over 30 seconds for something to visually appear.

at a minimum, need to get the snap updated on the edge channel

for reference ubuntu-core snap versions were
core 16.04.1 394 canonical -
pc 16.04-0.8 9 canonical -
pc-kernel 4.4.0-45-4 37 canonical -
