Hi Tormod,
Thanks for writing back. No, the problem I have is that I am unable to
disable the quiet option. It is always quiet during boot. This
"feature" is unique to my Dell D630 Intel laptop.
Every other ubuntu install I have configured to watch the console as
the computer boots up. I have 6 ubuntu computers:
Dell D630 notebook Intel core-duo with ICH8 family chipset: Kubuntu Gutsy x86_64
Sony vaio sz220 notebook intel duo-core ICH7 chipset: Xubuntu Gutsy
Dell C521 dimension desktop #1 AMD athlon 64 edubuntu lts dapper
Dell C521 dimension desktop #2 AMD athlon 64 ubuntu server gutsy
Dell C521 dimension desktop #3 AMD athlon 64 ubuntu server gutsy
hp e-pc Pentium 4 Xubuntu gutsy
It would not irritate me so much if it wasn't the computer I spend the
most time on. And it is this one I spend the most time watching it
boot ... with nothing to show for its progress. My LTS server:
$ uptime
03:29:43 up 110 days
And I only rebooted because I noticed the kernel version had changed a
number of times since the last reboot. :)
