Public bug reported: Hello,
I just installed gutsy on a new computer. I didn't attach it to the network while installing, and it caused two problems. These problems are quite easy for experienced users to fix, but I think that they might be annoying for newcomers. First of all, assuming that having an internet connection makes installation better, I think that the installation program should suggest that the user will connect his computer to the Internet if he can. In my case it was very easy, I just haven't thought about that. Now, to the actual problems: 1. The ubuntu repositories weren't selected. After the installation finished, I connected my computer to the Internet and run update manager. It said that my machine was up to date. It was wrong - the repositories just weren't selected. I think that if I were an inexperienced user, my system would have remained insecure. 2. The language I selected was half-installed. I chose to install my system in Hebrew, which is, I think, a language that isn't available on the installation CD. The result was that some of the items in the gnome menu were in Hebrew, but otherwise the system was in English. When I opened language manager before updating my system, the default language was Hebrew, but the list of languages included only English. After I updated my system, the list included Hebrew, and I selected it, and now everything is fine.
