Prior to this I tried both -5 -6 kernels had soild BIOS warnings until desktop. I had noted captn's fix, but it had not worked until I used 1024x768p-60 that chris_c had used. Looks like I needed to fully spec the settings to make it all work again.

[Bug 235662] Re: [Intrepid] usplash causing bios warnings when not used with quiet
Well---positive negative answersI can't get the old behavior-- asking for splash instead of quiet splash just gives a text display --not the old usplash with text below that I would really want to see, but at least I have had usplash two times in a row for the first time in months. I followed the steps noted above--also, I made sure that my /etc/usplash.conf also was set to 1024x768--ran update-initramfs -u after all changes were made.

Dean Loros : I reverted your mass duplicate job for bug 243682. Please avoid marking a bug as a duplicate when it is marked as fix released, was targeted, has a lot of duplicates and that does not exactly describe the same bug. Think about all the people who are subscribed to that bug and for who it is now fixed and don't forget that it will in the end make things more confuse. We should avoid false duplicates since it's more harmful than having potential duplicates. The more important is that you keep this bug report updated. BTW, I have I nvidia 8300 and a lot of people have nvidia cards, but don't have the beep problem, so it's probably somewhere else.. Can you install intrepid beta that is due october 2th and give feedback?

Thanks a lot for all the informations you provided. I still have no clue about what is the real problem but this bug now have relevant informations for developers.

Startup is just as dicey--bios warnings at several points in boot with text only display. This is with a Gigabyte motherboard that will boot without problems in Hardy.

[Bug 235662] Re: [Intrepid] usplash causing bios warnings when not used with quiet
Sure--I had a bad event last night--I had turned splash back on --had several boot/reboots that worked as expected, then had a very bad one -bios warnings on reboot--followed by a boot that was solid warnings with a damaged / partition that required a manual fsck to fix it...as you might guess I went back to quiet splash. The weird part is that with quiet splash there are no problems.drive in question is 3 months old---installed during hardy.

Dean Loros : Oh! Then that might not be a Linux issue but a hardware issue (really sounds like it). Can you boot in recovery mode and launch sudo badblocks -sv /dev/sda (or /dev/hda, /dev/sdb, /dev/hdb, depending of your hardware). You can list all physical hard drive of your computer with sudo fdisk -l to know what to use between /dev/sda or /dev/hda . This test will look if your hard drive is physically damaged. ** Changed in: usplash (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Saïvann Carignan (saivann) Status: New = Incomplete -- [Intrepid] usplash causing bios warnings when not used with quiet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235662 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

OK--tested my 160G Samsung SATAII my 250G Western Digital SATAII-- /dev/sda /dev/sdb. I did not test a drive I just bought that holds my Hardy backup install the /home(s) for both the Ibex installs (it's 400G--3 weeks old a Western Digital also--/dev/sdc--was running well before this came about). Tests show both SDA SDB with zero bad blocks. As I was saying before--this only happens if I try to run splash instead of quiet splash--A quiet splash reboot is without event. I guess that I would be one of the ones that really like the text output have problems with it :( I'll redo one of my Ibex installs (sda) with the alpha when it is out update the info. -- [Intrepid] usplash causing bios warnings when not used with quiet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235662 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 235662] Re: [Intrepid] usplash causing bios warnings when not used with quiet
Thanks for the verification. If you have time for it, it would be still appropriate to check the last drive with badblocks. Both new and very old hard drives are vulnerable to cluster damages. From now on, can you look if the problem can be reproduced is you remove both splash and quiet from the boot line? It would also be important to know if the BIOS error messages appears before or after the GRUB menu. If before, this is BIOS error messages, nothing to do with ubuntu, linux or splash. If this is after GRUB, this is linux kernel error messages concerning BIOS. quiet might only hide these error messages but not cause them. Can you also reproduce the problem and provide the files created by these commands in a terminal? dmesg dmesg.log (if you associate some error messages with the outputs you see while the computer boots, it's a good idea to edit the file to point them) sudo lspci -nnvv lspci-nnvv.log uname -a uname.log cat /proc/version_signature version.log cat /boot/grub/menu.lst menu.lst -- [Intrepid] usplash causing bios warnings when not used with quiet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235662 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
