 when you run OSGeoLive builds with virtual box (without installation) it
 can happen, that you get stuck in a blue screen.
 Then it can help to type Right Ctrl F1 & Right Ctrl F7. But in some cases
 this does not help and you can't start OSGeoLive

 * the issue was tested alpha1 (2018-06-11) and
 http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/18.04/release/


 Steps to reproduce
 * Download http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/12.0/
 * create a virtual machine with virtual box (Linux/Ubuntu64 bit)
 * start and choose the iso
 * choose the language
 * can see the screen Lubuntu 18.4
 * but then the blue screen shows up and nothing else happens
