[Bug 770107] New: Grub2: Prevent ugly back screen from popping up when booting any of the listed OS
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770107 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770107#c0 Summary: Grub2: Prevent ugly back screen from popping up when booting any of the listed OS Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 12.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader AssignedTo: jsrain@suse.com ReportedBy: badshah400@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1 Grub2 when themed (install grub2-branding-openSUSE) looks fine now. The only problem with it is this: when one hits enter to boot into any of the listed operating systems, it immediately shows up a small black screen not filling the entire screen (so the grub2 theme also is visible behind it) for about 2 seconds before switching to the booting graphics. This spoils the good looks of Grub2 and makes openSUSE look unprofessional.

From what I've seen for example with my nvidia able to able full screen resolution during grub phase, is no black transition.
Some intel's chipset users report same behaviour you described. And most of them have tell me they have same trouble under other distribution which look like problems in bios/chipset and intel drivers. (Now still have to find where it's failing is another trouble) It would be also super, if with whatever camera you could pick picture about the transition. Image related subject are more easy to understand with picture than words :-) Now it could also be related to the time the kernel loads, and initrd too. @Mickael didn't we already have that subject about udev creating device (which is forced in grub2 under fedora and ubuntu?) I didn't remember where I found those information -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
