Booting without custom GRUB_GFX* settings, and without the 'splash' option also works.
There are some differences with these two methods. With my method, on top left of the screen the cursor is flashing for ~10 seconds and the xubuntu splash screen is shown for short right before the login screen. With your method, the screen is gray for ~10 seconds an then some boot messages appear right before the login screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173941 Title: Ubuntu 13.04 doesn't start/ show login screen/ after intallation or upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1173941/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
