Title:
  Grub doesn't count down from 10 to auto boot

Status in “grub” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub

  Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid.
  Grub: 0.97-29ubuntu45
  For some time now, grub says that it will boot in 10 seconds on the current option, however, the countdown doesn't move (even without touching the keyboard).
  It stays on 10 seconds, does not boot after 10 seconds, however, everything works as normal, up/down selects different kernels to boot and hitting enter boots correctly.

  The following relevant lines are in the menu.lst:
  default		0
  timeout		10

  While this isn't a huge problem for me on this local machine, when I
  reboot my remote servers this would be a huge problem.
