Title:
  ubiquity hangs immediately after boot on precise

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I try to install Ubuntu 12.04 from a USB stick, ubiquity hangs
  immediately before I can even click on anything, right after the boot
  process.

  Sometimes I'm presented with the two options "Try Ubuntu" and "Install
  Ubuntu", and sometimes the installer isn't even rendered properly
  (buttons, text and images are simply missing, like the program isn't
  yet fully loaded or something). In either case, I am unable to do
  anything because mouse input as well as keyboard input are not
  registering at all. The majority of cases, I am however able to move
  the mouse pointer around. Ctrl+Alt+F1 (the virtual terminals) are not
  working either because, as stated, keyboard input does not seem to
  register.

  I have downloaded the ISOs from 3 different mirrors, as well as via
  BitTorrent, resulting in 4 different ISOs, but they all have the same
  MD5 checksum, so I don't think that is the problem. I have tried the
  "Startup Disk Creator" in Ubuntu to create the bootable USB drive, as
  well as the command:

  dd if=ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdd bs=4M conv=fsync

  but all of the ISOs downloaded and the different ways of creating the
  bootable USB drive all give the same non-satisfactory results.

  My processor and GPU are: Intel Core 2 Duo, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX
  580, respectively.
