I have the same problem.

I had a fresh install of Karmic RC, and the menu was hidden out of the box. Then I edited /etc/default/grub (to add acpi=off) and now I can't get rid of the menu no matter what. GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER didn't work for me.

My current settings are:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT="10"
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi=off"
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="true"

I guess it is the "update-grub" to blame, for I only added "acpi-off" on a fresh install (which hid the menu successfully) and when I update-grub the menu sticks..
