Bug Description

I am owner of HP Pavilion dv6650eo, its native resolution is 1280x800, and it's powered by nVidia GeForce 8400M GS. I am not able to see splash screen during Ubuntu boot. I tried to use startupmanager to manually set up the grub settings - but it took no effect. The actual grub settings in the menu.lst are:

title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=ec69886a-c650-41fc-9cb7-763508b99f88 ro vga=792 splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic
quiet

How to get splash screen working on my laptop?
