This bug was fixed in the package grub2 - 1.99~rc1-13ubuntu1 --------------- grub2 (1.99~rc1-13ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes: - Adjust for default Ubuntu boot options ("quiet splash"). - Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it. - Set a monochromatic theme and an aubergine background for Ubuntu. - Apply Ubuntu GRUB Legacy changes to legacy update-grub script. - Fix backslash-escaping in merge_debconf_into_conf. - Remove "GNU/Linux" from default distributor string. - Add crashkernel option. - Bypass menu unless other OSes are installed or Shift is pressed. - Allow Shift to interrupt 'sleep --interruptible'. - Reduce visual clutter in normal mode. - Remove verbose messages printed before reading configuration. - Suppress kernel/initrd progress messages, except in recovery mode. - Handle filesystems loop-mounted on file images. - Ignore devices loop-mounted from files in Linux grub.d scripts. - Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed. - Don't generate device.map during grub-install or grub-mkconfig. - Adjust upgrade version checks for Ubuntu. - Suppress "GRUB loading" message unless Shift is held down. - Adjust versions of grub-doc and grub-legacy-doc conflicts. - Fix LVM/RAID probing in the absence of /boot/grub/device.map. - Look for .mo files in /usr/share/locale-langpack first. - Build-depend on qemu-kvm rather than qemu-system for grub-pc tests. - Add a grub-rescue-efi-amd64 package. - On Wubi, just update wubildr rather than asking for an install device. - Check hardware support before using gfxpayload=keep. - Put second and subsequent Linux menu entries in a submenu. - Preferred resolution detection for VBE. - Set vt.handoff=7 for smooth handoff to kernel graphical mode. - Add grub-mount-udeb, containing just grub-mount. * Use /lib/plymouth/themes/default.grub if it exists, rather than hardcoding an aubergine background (LP: #696915). grub2 (1.99~rc1-13) unstable; urgency=low * Cherry-pick from upstream: - Use correct limits for mips initrd. * Run grub-install on install or upgrade of grub-yeeloong. * Update branch_fuse.patch: - Tell FUSE to run single-threaded, since GRUB code is not thread-safe (LP: #756297). -- Colin Watson <cjwat...@ubuntu.com> Fri, 15 Apr 2011 14:37:43 +0100 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/696915 Title: make it possible to configure grub background color in a usable way -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
