    Can't install Kubuntu from any daily build

    Hey. I want to install Kubuntu on my MSI GE70 2OD-240XPL laptop. I have been using Ubuntu on this laptop but I wanted to change the system to Kubuntu, because in my opinion KDE looks and works better than unity. Ubuntu worked fine without problems. I have been trying to install Kubuntu since last Monday. I tried installing it every day, from every day build but every time I get strange error. With today's build I got same error. I was unchecking visible instalation options but it didn't solve my problem.

      I saw mention of that a few days ago http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2014/04/11...ntu-devel.html
      I haven't seen it myself though.

        Thanks for your reply. It seems that I have to wait for Thursday for complete build.

          have you filed a bug? If no one knows of this problem, it can't be looked at.
          What exactly are the steps that lead up to this strange popup, and what happens if you click "ok"?
          (if someone tries to duplicate this?)

          How did you create the install image?

          Hardware specs?

            No, I don't filled a bug because I don't know how to do this during installation.
            It is very easy to get this bug - just try to install Kubuntu. It always appears on the same step of installation. After this, installer seems to be working, but nothing happens and I can't do anything. I created my install image through Ubuntu USB disk creator.
            My computer have Intel i7-4700Mq processor, 8gb ram and GeForce 765M graphics. Ubuntu works fine on this computer.

              You can file a bug in a couple of ways. If your livecd is connected to the net, you can hit alt-f1 and I believe you can use the ubuntu-bug command:
              Code:
              ubuntu-bug  ubiquity-frontend-kde
              You can also file one manually at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug?no-redirect= using ubiquity-frontend-kde as the package name. Just be very specific describing how you get to this, and if there are any 14.04 images that do not have this, including Ubuntu 14.04 images.

                    I saw on launchpad that my bug is duplicate of another bug which today has been repaired. I will check tomorrow new build and test it. I hope it will work. Thanks for help

                      Over the years I have not always been successful enabling the third party software and updates during an install.
                      You might want to try switching them off and installing them after the initial install.

                        I said that I had been trying with unchecked these options but it didn't help me.
                        This bug is now repaired.
