The plot thickens: I did a dist-upgrade this morning (US CST morning), and restarted: no usplash anymore, not even as we had when this bug was opened.
I can see the monitor trying to go graphical, and reverting back to text mode; a message is flashed on the screen stating that usplash could not find an "usable theme for 1280x1024", and "screen init failed". On reboot, no usplash. Removed /etc/usplash.conf, rebooted. No usplash image, but a nice video test pattern appeared on shutdown. Recreated usplash.conf with a resolution of 1024x768 (down from the previously working 1280x1024, and rebooted. Same messages as before. Looking at dpkg.log I see an update, this morning, to kubuntu-artwork- usplash 1:7.04-27 (from 1:7.04-26), soI downgraded to -26, recovered my initial usplash config (at 1280x1024 resolution), and rebooted. I am now back to the reporter's initial problem: on shutdown just the bar, no image, on usplash. Well, right now, I am setting it as confirmed for usplash. -- No Usplash when shutdown from desktop https://launchpad.net/bugs/90242 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
