Maybe we can consider not showing anything at all if only Ubuntu is  
installed. Right now it still counts down from 3, right? It's a  
little confusing to see your computer count down before it'll start.  
Of course, it's required in case compatibility modes need to be  
started, but we should really move that kind of stuff to usplash in  
the future.
