Title:
  Installation of Kubuntu 18.04.1 LTS 64-bit from USB fails on lenovo
  T410s

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I have downloaded the .iso for this install, written to USB-drive with
  the Startup Disk Creator, started the T410s with it, and it comes up
  splendidly. Once the first screen pops up, asking if one wants to try
  or install, it gets stuck. The mouse cursor moves, but neither of the
  two icons nor the drop-down for languages work any longer, nor can the
  system be shut  down. It needs the power button. I retried several
  times, and it gets stuck exactly there, always. I also re-wrote the
  thumb-drive, without avail. In the end, I checked the checksum of the
  downloaded file, and found it to be correct.

  In the very end I downloaded the lubuntu-version, used the same thumb
  drive, installed lubuntu instead, which worked without any problem,
  and then I used apt-get to install the Plasma desktop.
