Okay, I need to ask a favour. In bug #67443 , Thom Pischke (sorry I just called you by your last name, by the way, if you're reading this!) fixed a problem which I had a hunch was related to this one, in which progress bars were not displaying. The fix for that also managed to fix this!
So, I ask that, if you are encountering this problem, you please try adjusting your DefaultDepth in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Try lowering it to 16 first, and then restart X and see if anything has changed. Hopefully it has, in which case both this bug and #67443 can probably be considered the same issue... Perhaps a feature request could be filed: Ubuntu could check if current graphics options are suited to the driver in use, and pop up a warning if they are not. That way, if someone ends up with the wrong DefaultDepth, they can find and fix the problem immediately. (Assuming that sort of check is possible). -- artifacts near the end of usplash boot https://launchpad.net/bugs/66652 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
