Usplash
First attempt: didn't even try usplash, downloaded splashy and gsplashy. failing after a good 8 hours of attempting to change, i shutoff computer.
2nd attempt(day 2): i removed splashy, couldnt figure out how to remove gsplashy so its somewhere haunting my system.
reinstalled usplash, found many tutorials; looking good and bright so far. after 3 hours or so i reboot and find that NOTHING is working. plus now i have an annoying beep when i restart; i fixed the beep with a blacklist i picked up off another google search.
so now no splash on bootup, lots of text. better than the completely blank screen i got after trying splashy though. also, the shutting down screen gave me a shot, it started working again; for 1 shutdown.
day 3: here i am, on the ubuntu forums after 3 hours of configure and such. i actually finaly made the customized splash screen i want to use when i get this working instead of the preconfigured splash screens i tried with splashy and usplash. this is MISLEADING, what i mean is nothing works, only now i've got the background picture ready to use when something is WORKING.
alright so if ur gonna ask heres the info: laptap 1080x768, followed the OFFICIAL ubuntu change usplash page. yes i got tons of dependancies, and Start up Manager.
as of now, 3 days ago the default ubuntu splashes worked. now all i get is text.
What do i do?
