Please, it's not "fix" :-)  There's nothing broken.  If you don't want a
splash screen, just remove the "splash" option in the grub menu.lst - or
remove the "*splashimages" package, which is probably what's providing the
splash (there's a kubuntu-grub-splashimages and grub-splashimages - the
former provides _my_ splash, so I'm guessing the latter is the default
Ubuntu one).
