Title:
  Setting a jpg picture as background for the Grub menu, no longer works

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 13.04, setting a jpg picture as background for the Grub
  menu, no longer works. It has no perceptible effect at all.

  Strangely enough, it still *does* work in Lubuntu 13.04. Maybe because
  Lubuntu has less theming in Grub?

  Steps to reproduce:
  - install Ubuntu 13.04
  - install all available updates
  - in the Grub menu, check with the command vbeinfo, which resolution Grub supports for your display
  - boot normally
  - scale a jpg picture to the right resolution
  - put the picture in /boot/grub
  - perform sudo update-grub
  - reboot
