Considering grub development is basically dead (waiting for grub2),
what do you guys think about adding the splashimage patch to our
official grub? See grub-gfx in community. I have used it for ages on
my machine with no issues. It simply adds one config file variable.
As I said, I'm neutral on this. It kinda flies in the face of the
minimal patches idea, but grub is pretty much all patches these days.
Are we sure there are no negative effects to the patch (the patch is
pretty big [1]) ? I don't have a strong opinion either, but I'm not
sure if/why we should fix something which isn't a problem just because
it looks nice, thereby possibly creating new problems ?
Douglas, did you ever received messages / bug reports saying grub-gfx
did not work for them?

Hi all,
In fact just in its testing phase and i havent received emails about it
in ages, so im totally up to send it to our repos.
I have been using grub2 here and it is working great too, so i guess it
will be a great release (when its is ready).
Thanks
