I have the same problem. Dell E1705, resolution 1920x1200. Screen looks exactly as demonstrated. This occurred after upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10. Base install was 7.10 which was later upgraded to 8.04, which did not have this problem either.
502$ cat /etc/usplash.conf # Usplash configuration file # These parameters will only apply after running update-initramfs. xres=1920 yres=1200 menu.lst file is attached. ** Attachment added: "menu.lst" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20194689/menu.lst -- Corrupt splash screen on boot and shutdown since hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219751 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
