Public bug reported: Ubuntu 10.04 Kernel Linux 2.6.32-23-generic Gnome 2.30.0 Memory 3.4 GB Intel Core 2 Quad CPU 2.66Ghz
When I boot Ubuntu, I get ugly text and no splash screen. The same is true when shutting down. Further, about 50% of the time when shutting down, the the computer will not turn off. It goes to a screen that offers me to continue booting, or to make calibrations on my graphics. I have attached a screenshot of what that screen looks like. When it gets to this screen, it seems the only way to actually shut down the computer is to force a power off by pressing and holding the power button on the computer. I reported this problem on the Ubuntu Forums, where I have included other screenshots of the problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1472046&page=2 Unfortunately, one of the suggested solutions, to use "startupmanager", and turn off the "show text" option, and to turn on the "show splashscreen" check box has not resolved the problem. No other viable solution was offered. Please advise on how to make my boot and shut down process smooth and with appropriate splash screens. Thank you for your time and efforts.
