> Hi Everyone,
>
> As promised, this is my Testing Report on a Real Hardware. Last report I
> sent was on Virtual Machine which is not helpful so hope this is what you
> need.

>
>    1. Go to http://vanir.unit193.tk/mir/ and Download the ISO -
>    downloaded via torrent in my case.
>    2. MD5SUM Checked - Passed.
>    3. Test was done on this machine: http://phillw.net/hardware/BnA9pw11
>    4. Media used to install Xubuntu Saucy with MIR is LiveUSB (Sony
>    MSAC-UAM2 USB Device - 1GB) creating using UNetbootin (latest version - 585
>    under Windows 7).
>    5. From Boot Menu, I chose: "Try Xubuntu without Installation"
>    6. When the Live Desktop showed up, the colors were messed up. When I
>    tried to take a screenshot and uploaded to facebook from my test machine, I
>    checked the very same screenshot on my other machine and to my surprise the
>    picture was Crystal Clear! I can't really explain that. Could it be my
>    monitor? if so, why all the other systems on the same machine work fine?
>    there was red color on the background mixed with blue (wallpaper) and
>    everything is not clear (text and icons). Remember back in the Windows 98
>    days when you choose 256 colors instead of say 16bit colors? same thing.
>    7. *Mouse was SO SLOW!*
>    8. Output of: ps ax | grep system-comp: *root at xubuntu:/home/xubuntu#
>    ps ax | grep system-comp

>    10. I decided to install it to check whether the color issue can be
>    fixed or not.
>    11. Installation done using "Something else" on /sda7
>    12. At some points during the installation, the system appeared to be
>    frozen for few seconds (mouse dead - does not move) specially on Where Are
>    You Step and Who Are You Step and I guess Keyboard Layout Step as well.
>    13. Installation Done - Rebooted - Logged in to the main System -
>    update-grub- rebooted - Logged to Xubuntu
>    14. The color issue was the same.
>    15. Mouse was SO slow yet again.
>    16. That is all for now.

> Is there anything specific you want me to try and report back? the color
> issue is giving me hard time and hurts my eyes, I can't carry on with test
> while everything is messed up :(
