I had upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04(??), from kernel 2.6.28 to 2.6.31. The previous version used the 'splash' option just fine and booted with no hitch. 2.6.31-15 and 2.6.31-17 both will hang with the 'splash' option.
I did try changing my /etc/usplash.conf to match the desktop's resolution, from 800x600 to 1024x768, but that didn't correct the boot hang. I have not tried pulling the monitor cable from the video card yet. This workstation is connected from an nVidia Quaddro card, DVI-out to a VGA adapter, through a KVM switch to an LCD monitor. -- usplash hangs with kernel Ubuntu 2.6.31-14.46-generic, works with 2.6.31-13 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/451571 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
