[Bug 563878] Re: Ubuntu splashscreen big and ugly after installing ATI graphics driver

2010-05-09 Thread PDP
I have tried above workaround:

echo FRAMEBUFFER=y  sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-initramfs -u
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1024x768
sudo update-grub2

but it didn't solve the problem for me. The size of the logo was ok
again after applying the workaround but after grub a complete black
screen without cursor appears for more then 10 seconds. After that there
was shortly the logo and then the login screen.

I find this a major bug and I don't understand that this has a low
importance. It's give a very negative impression for the whole product,
even before using it, when you see a black screen for more then 10
seconds.

P.S.

- for the rollback of the workaround I've only deleted the added grub line. 
I've also tried echo FRAMEBUFFER=n but after that I couldn't any longer stop 
the system 
- for details of my configuration see bug 577317 which is a duplicate of this 
bug

Here's a workaround that solved the problem for me:

1) enable framebuffer mode:

echo FRAMEBUFFER=y  sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-initramfs -u

2) add this line to /etc/default/grub (The resolution has to be
supported by BIOS. To check, execute vbeinfo at grub2 prompt.):

GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1024x768

3) and finally:

sudo update-grub2

I really hope this gets an official fix as this is an LTS release.
The longer Ubuntu leaves this unsolved users will be left to
 find their own methods and means, which could result in
more problems should an official fix ever be released.

Many of the workarounds suggested by editing entries
in the following files just don't work.

/etc/default/grub
/etc/grub.d/00_header

Maybe it works for some, but I'm on a Nvidia card and
it's not working for me.

I'm also affected on NVidia GeForce Go 6100 using a proprietary driver
from repos. I haven't tried any workarounds yet because I am faithfully
expecting a fix released soon. The extra 6 seconds of boot time is not a
problem for me because due to another bug in Karmic my boot process used
to freeze for 25 seconds with a black screen and no disk activity (THIS
was scary!) just after grub. In fact, a finished product look IS
important for Ubuntu to draw new users. This low-res splash screen is
awful, as well as the boot console when you press Ctrl-F1.

* what testing was done before transitioning to 'plymouth' for lucid was green 
lighted for an LTS of all things
* why did Canonical not investigate the true number of users affected
* do we expect this to be resolved for lucid
* if not, what do we need to do to prove there is community interest in having 
the solution backported for lucid

an ugly bootscreen that appears for less than 10 seconds may seem
unimportant, but this an LTS release, and a very large number of users
really will hit this, therefore it is a big issue.  I cannot stress
that enough.

Following fix worked perfectly for me:

I think it's the same as the one from softpedia. Now my boot splash is in 
1024x768, as this was the highest resolution shown by hwinfo --framebuffer. My 
native resolution would be 1280x800, but still it's much better than before.
I attach my dmesg.txt hoping it will be helpful. I have an asus a6m notebook 
with a nvidia geforce go 6100 graphic card and ubuntu lucid amd64.
The other stuff like gfx_payload=keep or so didn't work for me at all.

2010-05-03 Thread James Pursey
Yes, I've come across the solution proposed in this blog too; but I
really don't like adding 6 seconds to the boot up time. As I said
before, the boot sequence is only on for a couple of seconds; I really
don't see the point of making a longer boot in order to make the boot
experience look good enough for you to forget that it's booting, if you
get my drift. I personally would prefer a really short boot time to get
to a working computer as quickly as possible. But what I really can't
stand is that black screen with a blinking cursor - it looks like the
computer has a serious problem - not a good first impression for a new
comer.

2010-05-03 Thread Orzech
@Jeff Sereno
Given that Lucid's total boot times have decreased to 9-15 seconds on the 
average modern system, that the splash screen is only on screen for a fraction 
of this time, and that the end-user will ultimately spend more time indulging 
the eye-candy of the desktop, I think this is a very low priority issue.

In terms of my direct opinion over the low-res splash, I think the issue
is more over the low colour depth rather than the low resolution. If it
were an 8-bit depth, I think most people would overlook the low pixel
resolution.

I suggest you repro this bug with full-disk encryption setup. By it's
nature you spend more time with splash than 9-15 secs. And looks like
crap now with for instance password dots overlapping each other. :)

2010-05-03 Thread silicon.shaman
Solution to this problem seems to be to uninstall the ATI driver. It not
only resolves the problem with the plymouth logo, but also means the
system can auto-detect monitor type correctly, 3d effects are enabled
[where supported] and as far as I can tell, run faster. More importantly
though..  it stops corrupting the boot loader. So you can reboot more
than just a few times before it all falls over. [note, you still have to
reinstall a clean copy of the boot loader afterwards].

Sometimes, less is more.

It's more than an appearance problem, at least on my system. The ATI driver 
kept corrupting the boot loader itself, so I couldn't reboot more than a couple 
of times before it failed and I needed to reinstall. 
 As I said, uninstalling it fixed the image appearance and the memory leak.

Perso, my ATI graphics driver has lousy performance with the open source
driver. People who have graphics cards want to be able to use them.
Reverting to a lower quality driver to  enjoy a boot splash that lasts
only a few seconds, thereby suffering a mediocre desktop experience
seems completely ridiculous in my opinion.

2010-05-02 Thread alexeagar
This problem occurred for me, but I found a very good solution which I
hope will be pushed upstream. The changes should be applied when
proprietary graphics drivers are enabled and reverted when proprietary
graphics are disabled. One of the steps involves choosing the ideal
resolution for the splash screen, but since the system would most likely
already be using the ideal resolution when the proprietary graphics
driver is enabled, the installer could just detect what resolution is
currently being used.

2010-04-22 Thread James Pursey
I pretty well agree with that last comment. The splash-screen is hardly
a critical issue - much better concentrate on making Lucid as reliable
as possible. Of course, IKT is right that such a thing wouldn't happen
with Apple. But that's because Apple works on a relatively restricted
amount of hardware and each successive version is toiled over behind
closed doors for many months, even years, before release. All Linux
distros rely on their communities of users to give feedback about their
experiences on an unimaginable amount of hardware. It's amazing it works
as well as it does; and if we can recruit even more Linux users the
result will be truly awesome! Actually, as far as the boot experience
goes, I'm more worried about the black screen that appears for the most
part of the boot process than the splash-screen itself. I can imagine it
scaring quite a lot of people. I myself thought there was a problem when
I saw it. Then the splash screen came along and I knew everything was
fine. Didn't last long, though: maybe two seconds at the very most.
Could the splash-screen be made to appear almost immediately?

2010-04-18 Thread Steve Langasek
While Scott has commented in the duplicate bug that the images are what
they are, I seriously doubt that the design team realized the
implication that 16-color images for VGA framebuffer also implied a
640x480 display.  While I don't think it's realistic to fix this for the
final release, I do think the ugly boot splash on VGA fb is not
actually what the design team intended, and that we should probably get
these scaled down by a factor of 1.6 (i.e., have them display equivalent
in size to a 1024x768 display).

But scaling the images won't affect the size of the text, so the
experience would still be inconsistent.  So I believe this should be
postponed to maverick, and preferably until after we have some way to
pass variables to our scripts from the theme definition so we don't have
to keep patching all the per-flavor themes.
