I am sorry, I wanted to nominate this bug for release in intrepid, but accidenlty chose hardy.
** Description changed: For high resolution wide screen configurations usplash-theme-ubuntu 0.19 will display an boot screen image that appears to be squeezed horizontally. How it is fixed in jaunty: usplash-theme-ubuntu 0.20 has fixed this problem by choosing the correct image for high resolution wide screen. Version 0.19 chose usplash_1365_768_scaled.png, version 0.20 now chooses usplash_1365_768.png. Some parameters for the geometry of the progress bar and text box have been adapted. Minimal patch: a minimal patch is attached to this bug report. TEST CASE: edit /etc/usplash.conf to contain xres=1680 and yres=1050, use the the boot option vga=873. (You will have to use an appropriate screen with a 16:10 aspect ratio.) Example hardware: Compal FL90 laptop with a 1680x1050 wide screen panel and an nvidia 8600 GT. Use grub with vga=873. A fixed package can be found at https://launchpad.net/~leonard-michlmayr/+archive/ppa Please test it and report your results. (Even if you have a different screen resolution.) Regression potential: the package has an important influence on user experience, but no influence on the system. Therefore I think the change - does not have much potential of negative side effects. For the package - itself, some users might experience a regression, if the configured - screen resolution does not match the real aspect ratio. (I will test - this.) + does not have much potential of negative side effects. -- wrong aspect ratio for 1680x1050 wide screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/245437 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
