2006-10-06 14:38:53 totya description Hi, I installed edgy last night, and I modified the /boot/grub/menu.lst file. My kernel section looks like this: title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.17-10-generic root (hd0,7) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-10-generic root=/dev/hda8 ro splash vga=791 initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-10-generic quiet savedefault boot 1. The usplash works fine however the messages on the screen too dark. I can't read the messages easily. In Dapper the messages was brighter. 2. I use vga=791 option which in Dapper caused 1024x768 usplash screen with lesser size fonts and lesser size kubuntu logo than the default. In Edgy this option has no effect. Has no effect means the fonts have a same size like without the "vga=791" option and the the "kubuntu" logo has a same size too. By the way the virtual terminals has 1027x768 resolution, so I'm sure the kernel not ignore the "vga=791" parameter.

2006-10-09 12:02:23 Anthony Mercatante kubuntu-default-settings: statusexplanation Edgy uses upstart which causes no messages to be displayed during the usplash stuff. It is normal that you can't read anything while it runs.

Remove 'quiet' from the kernel command line to display them
