I am happy to report that after upgrading from the Gutsy RC to the final release, the splash screen now does appear.
In fact, I tried entering my actual screen resolution of 1440x900 in the usplash.conf and it worked. It also worked with 1280x800 which was recommended above. What I have yet to test is whether this works out of the box with a fresh Gutsy install, rather than an existing install where the usplash.conf has to be tweaked. I will test that shortly. -- Splash screen doesn't appear under Gutsy after installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152265 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
