Public bug reported: When I am trying to activate grub bootsplash image it doesn't show up after reboot. I tried the kubuntu-grubsplash-images (or whatever it's called). The package loads up the blue_neon bootsplash as default and it works for me, but i when I am trying to change it to something else it's either doesn't display anything or displays resized, and replaced image with a reversed colours (real_colors_01.xpm.gz). The change only takes effect when I manually edit menu.lst file. In other cases sudo update- grub command gives the following output:
