the comment by fsstar worked for me as well (thank you!). I've now got a 640x480 usplash, which is much better than a blank screen.
Additionally, I found after making the changes the machine failed to shutdown the first time around, it didn't even respond to SysRQ commands. However, this problem has not re-occured since, and I think it was just down to some system inconsistency immediately after altering the usplash settings. -- Black screen, and bad usplash.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150930 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
