Comments/Problems: Example 1: The [Go Back] screen button icon also does not do it's job always. >From the Screen: 'Partition Disks','This is an overview of your currently configured partitions and mount points'. I selected my blue line #1 158 GB ext3. I positioned the mouse screen cursor pointer tip in the centre of the letter 'o' in the screen [Go Back] button icon. I pressed the left mouse button, the icon greyed out, my selected line turned a darker blue. The process went into a wait (froze). I wrote these notes up. I waggled the mouse slightly, while the cursor pointer was still contained inside the button icon borders. The software [Go Back] process then proceeded to continue to the next screen OK. Example 2: Another [Continue] screen button icon not working this time with this THIRD mouse type. Screen: 'Partition Disks','Partition Settings'. Selected blue line: 'Done setting up the partition'. Clicked left mouse button on the small hole in the letter 'e' in [Continue] The continue button icon greyed out, the slected line turned a darker blue, the process did not continue. I wrote up my notes, microwaved my cold tea, waggled the mouse, the process continued OK. Example 3: No problems (so far) with the [Help] button icon. Screen: 'Partition Disks','This is an overview of your currently configured partitions and mount points'. The [Help] button icon was tried 21 times at this screen with no issue, problem or faiilures. Example 4: No problems (so far) with the [Screen Shot] (Screenshot) button icon. Screen: 'Partition Disks','This is an overview of your currently configured partitions and mount points'. The [Screenshot] button icon was tried 20 times at this screen with no issue, problem or failures. Example 5: The [Continue] screen button icon failed to do it's job on an occurence of; Screen: 'Save debug logs','Mounted file system. [Continue]. The selected line turned darker blue, the continue button icon greyed out. The process did not continue. I wrote up my notes, waggled, the process continued OK. Off topic Note: rm removing most of my 'saved debug logs' ( after, I am guessing, saving 5 logs) I bypassed a problem I encountered, and I could then resume saving debug logs without error. I was saving to and I entered /target/var/log/ # nano /target/var/log/install/syslog showed; Errors were encountered while processing: python-central E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Example 6: 14.01.2011. I changed to a 4th? mouse, to a Compaq branded suznou Logitech Electronics Ltd, ASSY P/N 334684-108 2001.04.12 38920101 Two button, mouse ball, scroll wheel, PS/2 plug. On machine: Motherboard: A bit KT7, Raid, 1 Ghz. (Further details -less mouse- of this machine are already reported previously above.) I started a debian squeeze di RC1 i386 binary 1 DVD install session. I had an occurence of [Continue] failing, on Screen: 'Set up users and passwords','?enter password?' a little waggle took me to 'A user account will be created for you to use...' Proceeded OK. Example 7: [Go Back] failed at Screen: 'Finish the installation','Installation complete'. 1) I wish GoBack would indicate where it was going to. It varies from; di-mm screen, to, where it came from. 2) Ouch, A spacebar tap to free screensaver, was taken by di as a [Continue]. Example 8: [GoBack] failed at Screen: 'Save debug logs','Mounted file system'. [GoBack], failure, waggle, to screen: 'Directory in which to save debug logs', OK. Example 9: New start RC1 install, Screen Partition Disks','?Choose method?' [Continue] failed (Froze), waggled, the process proceeded to continue OK. In summary, The issue symptom reproduces on Multiple machines with multiple mice, on at least two screen button icons; [Go Back] and [Continue]. I wonder what the library is called that supplies the screen widget software ? di is great software getting greater.
