Title:
funny thing happens with monitor during grub screen
Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I've installed the latest ubuntu from your website
(ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso, 695MB), installed everything without
any problems (congratulations for making ubuntu recognize empty
partitions and doing everything on its own during install process),
but when I rebooted and when the grub boot screen should appear, it
doesn't (or it does by I don't see it) because the monitor shows me
some fancy colors, just like a TV test signal, when there is no
program on that channel :)
Something is happening in the background, I can hear hard disk
working, but the screen just shows some sprites/fractals/something I
can't even describe, but I think it went out of sync or something, not
sure. However, after a while, ubuntu continues to load normally, but I
wasn't able to log back into Windows again, because I couldn't see
grub screen.
I've manually moved /etc/grub.d/30_os_detect to
/etc/grub.d/05_os_detect (im not sure if i nailed file names
correctly, but i hope you know what i mean) and ran update-grub2 to
make windows become a first choice and rebooted, so now I'm back in
Windows and writting this bug report :)
