Usplash shows dirty fs check as routine check, allows cancelling

[Bart Samwel]

Binary package hint: usplash

I just had a "routine check" at bootup, of two file systems. My dmesg shows that both file systems were dirty. However, usplash allowed me to cancel the first routine check. The second one was not cancellable.

This is on Hardy, up to date as of today.

Bart, thanks for your report,

I think the normal behavior is that fsck on 'clean' filesystems could be skipped.

Are you telling that you see something like:
Routine check of drives: blabla...
Press ESC to skip

and pressing ESC does nothing?

Otherwise, I suspect you're filesystem was not cleaned, and so the initscripts doesn't let you skip the check.
I'm going to set this as 'incomplete', please feel free of saying somthing if you still see this issue.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.

Can say that it is -- but then again, recently I've finally gotten all
of my systems to suspend-to-RAM correctly, so I don't have much chance
to see this happening. I'd say, consider it fixed until somebody else
reports it again!

Cheers,
Bart

Since the original reporter is no longer affected by this bug, I'm closing it. As always, feel free to reopen it if it recurs, or file new bugs for any other issues. Thanks!
