At the request of Mark Shuttleworth and the design team, I've removed
the "Ubuntu" text and logo from the CD boot splash screen on Ubuntu and
Ubuntu Netbook images - that is, the first screen that appears when
booting a CD. It used to look like this:
http://people.canonical.com/~cjwatson/tmp/ubuntu-boot-screen.png
It now looks like this:
http://people.canonical.com/~cjwatson/tmp/ubuntu-boot-screen-new.png
The reason for this is to avoid the new branding being distorted on some
hardware due to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gfxboot-theme-ubuntu/+bug/536692.
It seems likely to me that there will be some screenshots of this screen
in documentation, so this is a heads-up - please update those
screenshots.
No other screens have changed as part of this.
Thanks,
