[Bug 205990] Re: [hardy] splash screen disappears after a few seconds

[Neil Woolford]

I had this problem with an upgrade to Hardy Heron, but only with the
latest kernel.  Reverting kernel to the previous one worked fine.

The fix given at the top of this bug worked for me;  the UUID for the
swap file was correct in /etc/fstab but wrong in /etc/initramfs-
tools/conf.d/resume.  Editing this file to the right value and then
updating initramfs has cured the problem.

I don't know how the UUIDs got out of step;  the system was
repartitioned using the gparted live CD immediately before the upgrade
from 7.10 to 8.04, but the swap partition wasn't changed at that point;
also, reverting to the previous kernel version worked fine  (presumably
the associated ramfs image still held a correct UUID?).

Thanks for the solution anyway.  I have little doubt that resume will
now work (should I ever choose to try it...)
