2008-02-04 20:55:24 Colin Watson description Binary package hint: usplash Testing Gutsy RC i386. I had no problem with usplash using system installed with an alternative iso, but i got a black screen during the boot of the system installed with desktop iso. The problem came from usplash.conf where the resolution is too big/invalid. I got a 1280x1024 in usplash.conf, or my system can do 1024x768. Xorg is well configured for desktop/alternative (1024x768) usplash.conf is well configured for alternative (1024x768) usplash.conf is BAD for desktop (1280x1024) In Ubuntu 7.10, the desktop CD installer did not correctly configure the splash screen's resolution for the current hardware. This problem is believed to be fixed in Hardy Alpha 2, and so should be fixed in Ubuntu 8.04. If you are experiencing this bug and wish to verify whether it's due to the problem originally reported here, then please compare the resolution shown in System -> Administration -> Screens and Graphics (assuming you haven't changed it) with that in the file /etc/usplash.conf. They should be the same. For example, on the computer I'm using at the moment, Screens and Graphics says "Resolution: 1280x800" and /etc/usplash.conf has "xres=1280" and "yres=800". If they are different, then this bug has recurred for some reason and I would like to know about it in this bug report. If you find that the *live CD* does not display a splash screen while booting, or if you have an installed system that does not display a splash screen while booting but has the *same* values in Screens and Graphics and in /etc/usplash.conf as above, then this is not the same problem as this bug; instead, it is likely to be a deeper problem with the splash screen software, possibly specific to your hardware. Please report that on the 'usplash' package in Ubuntu.
