Bug Description

Binary package hint: splashy

Was attempting to use different splash manager after following instructions from Ubuntu Guide.

http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic#Compiz_Fusion

 Change USplash Boot Screen

This is the splash screen you see at bootup, when you are asked for a login and password. You can change the USplash screen using the utility startupmanager. (Startup Manager can also be used to change GRUB bootup settings if you use multiple OS's on your computer). Install:

sudo apt-get install startupmanager

    Start:

System -> Administration -> Startup Manager

You could alternatively use a different splashscreen manager, Splashy, instead of USplash. Install:

sudo apt-get install splashy splashy-themes
