As of Gutsy this only seems to happen on the LiveCD, once installed there doesn't seem to be any corruption and a resolution shows up in the usplash.conf, its not 1920x1200 but I think thats a VESA flaw.
It could still be somewhat disconcerting to people trying Ubuntu for the first time. # Usplash configuration file xres=1280 yres=1024 -- Usplash draws some corrupt garbage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151940 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
