Hi Simon and everybody else,

I am filling in the forms at the QA-tracker, http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/

but I want to share my general findings here too. Particularly the 
comments, which might be overlooked at the QA-tracker.


bugs for Lubuntu Zesty alpha (all test cases)

http://launchpad.net/bugs/1574278 AbiWord text cursor starts to flicker 
after adding some text
http://launchpad.net/bugs/1656399 Unable to unlock session after suspend 
using lightdm-gtk-greeter

bug for 'Alternate Install (Encryption) in Lubuntu Alternate i386 in 
Zesty Daily'
http://launchpad.net/bugs/1659448 grub fails to install bootloader for 
zesty LVM with Encryption

The grub bootloader could not be installed (red screen). I assume the 
same bug as reported by Ubuntu Gnome.

comments for Lubuntu Zesty (all test cases)

1. Login screen has black background. Desktop session has blue 
background (no wallpaper file).

2. Ugly button for the menu (left corner of the panel)

3. 'xserver-xorg-input-synaptics' is no longer installed in Lubuntu 
(hence no synclient).

4. Probably more packages are removed too, but the alternate iso files 
are well within CD size, 676 MiB :-)

Best regards
Nio
