Hi all,
I have installed Lucid two weeks ago and I have a lot of problems to configure my video card Nvidia Geforce gtx260. Thanks to the help of ubuntu forums members I have correctly installed it and now I can use Compiz fusion and other amusements.
A particular problem is that as i choose Ubuntu from Grub menu the splash animation I've seen using the installation dvd ramdrive now doesn't start and i am directly addressed to the desktop username/password.
In your view could it depend on my video card? If yes what can i do to make the spash working (plymouth or others)?

plymouth only works with video drivers that support a high resolution console. No proprietary driver (including the nvidia driver) supports KMS (kernel modesetting) and they likely never will. plymouth *might* work with the vesa framebuffer, but I'm not sure if that's the case.

It works fine with NVIDIA and ATI drivers.
The fix is here

I'studying you solution. Once I've already ried this way but probably I have done some errors, since after I chose Ubuntu the new splash freezed and was forced to switch off power. Neither reboot was working.
I'll tell you.
See you in the net
