Bug Description

During the initial configuration of the Ubuntu Desktop for Raspberry Pi (the oem-config process, derived from ubiquity), on the Mantic beta images, after the various pages of information have been filled out and the process moves onto configuration, the "slide deck" that is usually displayed during the process appeared corrupted as if a horizontal stride were incorrectly set somewhere.

I'm attached a photo of the screen (as, while I could take a screenshot during the process, it evidently wasn't saved somewhere persistent).

I originally thought this might be a regression of LP: #1924251 as the corruption in the window looks very similar (incorrect horizontal stride causing "banding"), but I tested the embedded browser (via the help system) after completing setup and it worked perfectly so that's *probably* unrelated.

Not occurring on the latest daily on either Pi 4 or 5; I'm guessing the recent updates of mutter or mesa are responsible.

Bah, spoke too early. This is *not* occurring on the Pi 5, but *is* occurring on the Pi 4 (tested both with the final image). Setting to low priority because it's a purely cosmetic issue; the installation prompts still work happily, and so does the installation afterwards.

status: Fix Released → Confirmed
