Hi Joseph, Tried your suggestion; still the same unfortunately. I actually had GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash=verbose" but tried GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" which made no difference.
I also noticed a line in that file saying GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset quiet vga=795" and tried removing the quiet from there, still with no success. Curiously, with a 2.6.x kernel, the same options in grub.cfg DO give me a verbose boot, linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38-11-generic root=UUID=e8498562-ee8f-4f88-921e-a897f4bea123 ro nomodeset vga=795 splash=verbose gives the desired result, but linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.0.7-030007-generic root=UUID=e8498562-ee8f-4f88-921e-a897f4bea123 ro nomodeset vga=795 splash=verbose doesn't. Which is why I think there's something odd about the 3.0.x kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/893109 Title: 3.0.x kernels ignore splash=verbose in grub.cfg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/893109/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
