Title:
ubuntu-logo on VGA fb (as with nvidia or fglrx binary drivers) does
not display crisply
To manage
The softpedia workaround works for me using proprietary Nvidia drivers,
BUT when I hibernate my machine, it won't come resume - it just hangs.
Not sure if this reported as another bug or not, but some googling has
indicated that using uvesafb with the proprietary nvidia drivers can
cause
The workaround works fine with Kubuntu Maverick Meerkat (10.10). I just
can't understand why there's no fix if a workaround is already out, so,
the problem AND solution is already known.
When I try to show Kubuntu (or Ubuntu) to a Windows user, the first
thing they notice is the UGLY boot... :(
I'm on 10.10 and I am using the proprietary fglrx driver for my
Radeon3100. I have an ugly splash screen, ugly boot messages and ugly
console screens. So nothing happened, as far as I can see, to this in
Meerkat. I've tried modifying /etc/default/grub setting GRUB_GFXMODE and
IMO this isn't fixed until the resolutions can match up, I get a
flickery purple screen with text on 10.10. This is not a good user
experience. I don't see why users should be punished for having good
graphics cards when my wife's ubuntu has a generic Intel based and it
looks great. Windows 7
Im not sure what Fixed is meant to look like. :(
I found a nice Windows 7 Plymouth screen and it simply looks like a huge
eyesore with 4-bit color.
I haven't tried the Softpedia workaround yet...lil hesitant, don't want
to break anything. Cant it be included in 10.10?
