[angus73]

The workaround in Comment #33 also worked for me (and update-grub
afterwards - Ivan, did you did it?)

Title:
  Grub ignores TIMEOUT options on /etc/default/grub

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in grub2 source package in Vivid:

Bug description:
  This is a fresh install of trusty (amd64), without proposed (since
  this grub package has reached the regular repos).

  I have attached my `/etc/default/grub` file. After modifying it, I
  make sure to run update-grub, but the changes won't take effect on
  next reboot: the menu is shown with a timeout of 10 seconds even when
  GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE is set to countdown.

  After reading grub.cfg and googling a bit I found this:

  (30_os-prober is overriding the values of GRUB_TIMEOUT and
  GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE.)
