Public bug reported: The only way I could get this bug report filed was to run in 2D. The 3D screen is corrupt. Also could not run in Live OS off DVD or USB. Could not install from either DVD or USB. Had to do an install of 12.04 then do an upgrade to 12.10. For more information please see this thread on the forum @ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2039669&page=1. Please read all the post I made under user name irv. I will not add any screen shot yet but will try to include them in the comments. You can see them on the forum also. There was another bug report filed but it was from 12.04 and the problem was in 12.10. You can either delete that bug report or mark it as a duplacate of this one.
