Sorry I didn't notice the request for info...
Hirsute has released so it doesn't matter there...

I can resurrect this if I confirm it's the case with impish.
I zsync'd today's Xubuntu ISO (impish) and confirm the issue remains :(
- dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)

It just sits there with Xubuntu & a spinning logo without text.

I pressed SPACE bar, then started the Alt-F4/arrow to switch to terminal
and the box just turned off.. so some key was taken like it was an
enter.

At no point did the screen change (before turning off; nothing became
visible; position did not alter - both screens showing the same).. I was
watching the display far more closely than keyboard so I can't be sure
what keys I hit, but it was NOT enter with hands on left end of
keyboard)


I booted Xubuntu impish again... this time using only Alt+Arrow

>From Xubuntu & twirly thing
Alt+Left = cursor top left blinking
Alt+Right to return to Xubuntu & twirly

Alt+Right = message top "Please remove the installation medium, then
reboot"

I was unable to work out what keys caused it to shutdown last time...
It shutdown this time only with enter.

Title:
  Xubuntu hirsute live system, on shutdown no "Please remove the
  installation medium, then press ENTER:" message appeared

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Xubuntu hirsute daily installation QA-test on
  - dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)

  At completion of install, it suggested I reboot so I was accepted. I
  then got the Xubuntu plymouth screen, and it sat there ...  for >60
  mins

  ** Expected Result

  Xubuntu plymouth close/shutdown screen
  Message "Please remove the installation medium, then press ENTER:"
  I press enter and it reboots

  ** Actual Result

  Xubuntu plymouth close/shutdown screen
  It just sits there... no message (>60 mins for this test)

  On enter it reboots

  ** Extra notes

  See
  http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/419/builds/223307/testcases/1300/results
  for my comments at test

  I don't believe this is new, I believe I saw it during the groovy
  cycle too; however just pressed enter

  I also believe it's related to this box screens. This box has 2x
  1280x1024 displays, however on boot of Ubuntu & Debian *live* systems
  the monitors show as mirror'd, and one display is currently running at
  1024x768; being mirrored I think both run at the lower resolution thus
  I believe the 1024x768 screen is the reason this issue occurs.

  The Xubuntu logo was not central on the display; I think it was out
  b/c of displays both running at 1024x768, and the portion out is I
  suspect appropriate if drawn for 1280x1024.

  I can re-create this  (this box only though, which I believe relates
  to video card and/or screen resolution)
