I had slow slow boot time and no splash screen after installing ubuntu 7.10 on an IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad R51. The screen was black for at least 3 minutes before I got to the login screen. I followed the steps you outlined:
- edit the file: /etc/usplash.conf - change the resolution inside the conf file by mine (it was 1280x1024, i put 1024x768 (ok i have an old pc...)) - run: sudo update-initramfs -u Now it is working fine! Booting in around 35 seconds with the splash screen. Thanks a lot. I hope this works for others too! -- no bootsplash in Xubuntu gutsy rc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152726 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
