I click "OK" expecting the installation to run, but the button just turns grey, nothing else happens. I get the "terminate nonresponsive program?" query when trying to close Easyubuntu. Although the program then seems to terminate, I have to reboot before being able to use any other install/uninstall tool.

hi, thanks for posting.
can you run easyubuntu in a terminal, and attach the output here? it may
be a bug in easyubuntu, or a bug in the menu item.
thanks.
