Title:
  Ubiquity computer's name error

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When introducing the credentials on the "Who are you?" screen of the
  install, if the computer name already exists on the network an error
  appears next to the name (this should be a warning). In any case, if
  ignored, the error/warning will be cleared when introducing a
  password.

  It has happened in every installer I have tried so far (Natty and
  Oneiric), but in particular it is reproducible here:

  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10
  Package: ubiquity (not installed)
  ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-10.16-generic 3.0.4
  Uname: Linux 3.0.0-10-generic x86_64
  ApportVersion: 1.22.1-0ubuntu2
  Architecture: amd64
  Date: Tue Sep 13 14:15:48 2011
  InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Beta amd64 (20110913)
  ProcEnviron:
   LANGUAGE=en_GB:en
   PATH=(custom, no user)
   LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
   SHELL=/bin/bash
  SourcePackage: ubiquity
  UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
