My previous comment was not completely right: I mentioned the wrong path (/etc/grub/menu.lst instead of /boot/grub/menu.lst) and also the changes were removed when a new kernel was installed (more precisely, when update-grub is run). So here a new howto:
Edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst and find the line that starts with "# kopt". In my case: # kopt=root=UUID=73014da7-ff55-487e-bdbc-4ad6d47e5d68 ro Add "vga=773" to the end of the line. So in my case: # kopt=root=UUID=73014da7-ff55-487e-bdbc-4ad6d47e5d68 ro vga=773 Save the file. Now run "update-grub". The next time you boot, you should see the splash screen! -- No usplash on boot/shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68012 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
