2008-10-06 17:25:48 Stefan Krause description Binary package hint: libusplash0 On my laptop (a HP hdx 9400) 8.04 x86 and x86_64 boot fine with splash enabled. With 8.10 I'm unable to boot either the live cd or the installed version unless I modify the kernel parameters. The system starts to beep until it beeps continuously. I don't think it would continue to boot but my nerves prohibit waiting longer than 20 seconds with that sound. This happens so early that no log file in /var/log is written yet. If I change the parameters such that splash is not used (e.g adding vga=3 noquiet and remove splash option 8.10 boots fine) .

2008-10-14 23:40:07 C Pirnat usplash: statusexplanation This makes the system unusable this should be marked as a critical bug! I experienced the same thing with an upgrade from hardy. Had to boot kernel .19 which works fine and disable splash for the .27 kernel.

Binary package hint: libusplash0 On my laptop (a HP hdx 9400) 8.04 x86 and x86_64 boot fine with splash enabled. With 8.10 final with nvidia restricted drivers as soon as the system boots up the speakers start to beep aloud until they beep continuously. This happens while booting, shutting down, entering standby, resuming, logging off. While logging off the beeps last only while the screen goes black. In any case it seems to be only an aesthetic (acoustic) bug since the system correctly performs the tasks as expected (e.g. boots up and logs off fine). If I change the kernel boot parameters so that splash gui is not used (i.e. removing 'splash' option from the kernel boot line at /boot/grub/menu.lst the system boots fine.
