Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Installer crashed as soon as I clicked the desktop icon to install Kubuntu. It's Gutsy Gibbon, bundled with KDE 4.0 as distributed by the spanish linux magazine "Todo linux", edited by Studio Press www.studiopress.es.

Here is the output of the crash window:
