I observed similar behavior using Ubuntu 6.10 AMD64 DVD ISO.  During the
DVD error check, there are several graphical problems:

 1. The progress bars starts by doing a "Cylon Eye" scan (sweeps right,
then back left) before it starts actually progressing to the right
during the error check.  I don't know if this is by-design due to some
developer who was just trying to be "cute", or whether it's a code
defect, but either way it's unintuitive to the user.

 2. The progress bar contains graphical glitches (noisy/random pixels
along the bottom-right edge).

 3. The status text at the bottom of the screen appears in a very dark-
grey color that is almost impossible to read; need brighter text.

4. (Not a graphical problem, and this may belong in a separate bug): The
user can press CTL-ALT-F1 through CTL-ALT-F12 and switch virtual
terminals while the error check is happening.  Once that is done, I
found no way to successfully switch back to the graphic screen (with the
progress bar) that was initially presented.  This is a horrible and
unexpected user experience, especially for users with no prior Linux
experience.

I will come back and attach some digital camera shots of what I'm
talking about.
