WARNING DO NOT USE STARTUP MANAGER TO ATTEMPT CHANGES IN GRUB 2 ! It is not intended to change GRUB 2 settings. GRUB 2 is a new changing project as all settings info. I find is out of date. Make changes to GRUB 2 with a new UNDER_DEVELOPMENT Startup Manager 2 only. Sadly it has not been released yet as it's being forged. I have read about new Usplash GRUB 2, manually changing settings can cause problems. -- Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi I have the same problem. I've tried to install new usplash screen in both ways (with commands mentioned in the first comment and via startup manager), the result was same. No errors occured during configuration, but no usplash was displayed during the boot. -- Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 235615] Re: Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme
I dont see anything strange in the console output. If you try installing the themes manually with the commands philinux wrote in the first comment, do it work then?

[Bug 235615] Re: Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme
Hi I have the same problem. I have upgraded from Hardy to Intrepid - Startupmanager worked fine before the upgrade. Running Startupmanager shows no errors and I can set different splash screens from within the gui. However, all splash screens (except the default one shipped with Intrepid) fail to be displayed at boot-up. All that is seen at boot-up in the boot text (showing services started, etc). I have looked in the relevant directories where the .so and link files files are stored and I can see them being successfully changed when Startupmanager is run. However, they are still not being displayed at boot-up. The only difference between the .so files I have noticed is that the original .so shipped with intrepid is 2.5MB, whereas the .so files I am trying to use are 1.7MB. Not sure if this is relevant but thought it best to mention it. Also, the icons associated with the .so files are different when looking at them through Nautilus. I would have thought that they would look the same, as they are the same type of file, but I'm not sure - just thought I'd mention it. I have attached a screenshot to show you what the icons look like.

[Bug 235615] Re: Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme
Very strange, since those are the commands sum use to install/change usplash theme. That it should fail to change other settings is even more weird. Try launching it from a terminal with sudo startupmanager (yes, use sudo not gksu since it may block some output). Then try changing some settings that does not work and paste the terminal output here. -- Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 235615] Re: Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme
Ok running it with sudo fixed it. There was a panel came up regarding grub having been locally modified. So I chose the package maintainers version. This has now sorted out the problem. It was not writing the new grub. There must have been difference between /boot/grub/menu.lst and the one held in /var/run. This episode occurred only after I had to manually run the usplash command in terminal. SUM also now installs usplash.

[Bug 235615] Re: Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme
Update. I used these commands to get a usplash installed. sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/usplash/usplash-artwork.so usplash-artwork.so /usr/lib/usplash/usplash-theme-fingerprint.so 10 sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so sudo update-initramfs -u Now startupmanager fails to change any other settings at all. I may have to restore the default ubuntu usplash to get startupmanager to work. -- Startupmanager fails to install new usplash theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
