I tried a new command in order to get the splashscreen. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh usplash update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic
But this command doesn't help neither. Later I tested the OpenSuse-11.1 Gnome Live CD. When starting the live-cd I don't get the splash! So the Ubuntu/Kubuntu live-cd's a performing better, because they give me the splash. I didn't install OpenSuse because my monitor was flickering once the gnome started up. It looks as if the bootloader has problems with a monitor with a 1280 * 1024 (5:4) 75hz resolution. I installed hwinfo. sudo apt-get install hwinfo sudo hwinfo --framebuffer 02: None 00.0: 11001 VESA Framebuffer [Created at bios.450] Unique ID: rdCR.99a6Uj8yMKC Hardware Class: framebuffer Model: "ATI R128" Vendor: "ATI Technologies Inc."
