Oh, thanks. I suspect, then, that casper settings is one of those automagically generated files (as a non-technical guy) that take advantage of other packages config. For instance, grub uses the colour configurations set in Plymouth. I'm quite sure this involves syslinux or plymouth, as they are the only packages I have set to show that shiny blue text (#0087ED).
Plymouth is within the squashfs and would run before the persistent filesystem overlay is loaded. The only way to edit that would be unpack, change files and then repack.

I don't see anything in casper that touches plymouth theme.

I suspect that these particular fonts (regardless of size or color) are
part of 'casper'.

Everything I see post-installation looks fine ............... so I think
'plymouth' is fine.

But I have no idea how 'casper' plays with 'syslinux' .............. or
'ubiquity' :^(

Just to be perfectly clear:

I only see this issue using the live image, NOT an installed Ubuntu
GNOME Saucy Beta 1!

It does effect other things regarding 'casper' but booting the live
image and choosing Check disc for defects is the easiest to reproduce.

I notice comments about 'syslinux'. How does that play into 'casper'?

Regardless we need not get our panties in a bunch. I think as long as we
get this fixed by beta 2 we'll be fine. Otherwise the newest theming
looks fine ;^)

Alfredo has done a super great job so let's help him wherever possible
without creating stress!!!

Lance

PS: If I didn't make it clear enough I suspect this is related to 'casper'!
