As mentioned, none of the workarounds solved the issue for me on Fiesty or Gutsy and I was left with powersave during boot. Tonight I have downloaded the fresh Hardy Alpha 3 image (alternative 64bit) and done a clean install. I still have the same symptoms - the fix in Hardy does *not* make usplash work on my system.
Hardware details are above (a Dell Inspiron 530 with nVidia GeForce 8600 GT), let me know what I can post that will help nail this one Thanks/L -- Black screen, and bad usplash.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150930 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
