Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

<Disclaimer: This is my personal opinion>

The Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron AMD64 Alpha 6 installer asks for your location ("Where are you"): you have to point it on the map. In Alpha 4 (and maybe 5) this was easy: point and click. However, with Alpha 6, when you move your mouse pointer, the map moves too (in the opposite direction, I believe). I find it very hard to click on the correct location; I feel the RSI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repetitive_strain_injury) in my hand and arm coming up. ;-(

Can we get the old location-pointer back?
