Hi there! Some news:
I've also tried "splashy" on my PC but it doesn't work too...wehn trying to set a "splash" it says me [FAIL].... As suggested by a friend, I've tried to start from a "vanilla kernel" (2.6.21) and applied the patch for bootsplash (www.bootsplash.org). Very important before to compile the kernel is to set in .config file the VESA framebuffer support for the console. Result was: Bootsplash not working too...but now I can visualize the original Usplash from Ubuntu....the only problem is that now I've some "run-level" problem... When booting I can see the Usplash for a few seconds (progress bar not completing the forwarding..) and after that a message saying cannot find /etc/inittab, and only the CTRL+ALT+F7 console works... (CTRL+ALT+F1...F6 doesn't work....such as CTRL+ALT+DEL...) Looking all around on the net I've read that Ubuntu (starting from 6.10) doesn't use "/etc/inittab" any longer.....but now "/etc/init.d" folder..... I still didn't managed how to fix that, but I hope what happened to me can be usefull to someone..... -- Feisty crashes after grub, before boot process, if usplash is enabled (amd64) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/86666 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
