Chris, I was incorrect: should be "/etc/default/grub", not "/boot/default/grub".
I did run "sudo update-grub" after the edit. Because the lines became so bad on my laptop running 10.04, I've done a clean install of 12.04: no vertical lines. I quickly concluded that I hate Unity. So I checked out MATE & Cinnamon. I've settled on MATE. This has made me decide that I'll upgrade on my Desktop to 12.04 with MATE after July, when 12.04.1 is released. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572521 Title: vertical coloured lines on bootup dell inspiron 1501 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/572521/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
