Fedora :: Get The Splash Screen But Nothing Else?

Nov 12, 2009

I just installed 11 successfully from what I've told. I made some configuration changes upon a first successful boot and rebooted and now I am getting the Fedora splash screen and nothing else. What can I do to stop this? I thought I changed the inittab to 3 (I'm certain I did) but it started in X and I can't even check that because nothing is responding.

Is there something I can do when I boot up the computer to force it to go into the CLI? I am not a GUI person on Linux.

Ubuntu :: Reset All Personalization Such As Splash Screen And Colors In Grub Splash To Default?

Apr 25, 2010

If I re-install Grub 2 from the live CD should that reset all the personalisations such as as splash screen and colours in the Grub splash to default? In my case they are not resetting. I would expect them to revert to the default black/white you get when initially installing the OS. the Grub timeout to be a lot less than its supposed to be? e.g. the default timeout setting of 5 seconds is more like 2 or 3 in reality, and when I set my prefered value to 2 seconds it results in being about 1/4 sec or so.

Ubuntu :: Splash Screen Messed Up - Get Random Command Lines Mixed In With The Usual Splash

Jan 26, 2011

Since updating my graphics driver on ubuntu 10.10, My splash screen has been inconsistant and messed up. Sometimes ill get random command lines mixed in with the usual splash, sometimes the splash wont show and it will just be black till the desktop appears, sometimes it flashes on and off. I originally tried fixing the resolution and just made the problem worse. Then I tried installing a new splash via gnome-look.org, but it just made my shut-down splash blank and didnt effect my splash at startup. I just want the original splash that ubuntu is supposed to have.

Ubuntu :: Splash Screen Startup - Goes Blank For A Minute Then Briefly Shows The Splash For 5-10 Seconds

Mar 26, 2011

I'm running 64 bit Ubuntu, and on the start-up after I pass the GRUB it goes blank for a minute then briefly shows the splash for 5-10 secs and then jumps to the login screen. Also the screen is offset by about 10-15 pixels but from the login screen onwards it is centred. (It's also like this for if I'm in recovery mode)
How do I fix this and Im wondering if it is a hardware problem?

Fedora :: Splash Screen / Set It Up?

Feb 4, 2010

A while back I remember gnome loading on Fedora (or was it Red Hat?) with a splash screen with wobbly icons indicating progress. Was it discontinued? How can I set it up?

Looking at gnome splash screens, all I see are pictures and not a set up as such...

Fedora Installation :: 12 - Splash Screen Locks Up ?

Jan 9, 2010

I have a Dell Latitude E5500. For some time I've been installing different distros on it to find which is best suited for my needs. I've tried Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Mandriva, openSuSE, Fedora, and several others. So far, openSuSE takes the cake in terms of what I need, speed, usability, etc. However, I have a soft spot for Fedora and I'm trying so hard to make things work, but I'm kind of at the end of the road unless you guys have some suggestions.

I was in the IRC chat for Fedora asking around, and one user was kind enough to point me in this direction, which made sense as to why I was having issues.

[url]

I was having mixed results, but I had also installed from a Fedora KDE LiveCD. I decided I'd try the full DVD release of Fedora 12 64 bit, so I installed it this evening.

To my disappointment, even the nomodeset parameter does nothing. I get to the blue screen where there's some kind of logo in the center that fills in with white. After it fills in, an F appears. That's where it stops. It just goes no further. Further adding to the confusion is the fact that the fix lists a kernel there, indicating (to me at least) that the kernel listed is when a fix was deployed. I have a newer kernel than that, and despite that I still have these issues.

So needless to say, I'm using my laptop as testing grounds to plop a different distro than Ubuntu on my laptop and 2 servers full time. I really want to make Fedora work, but at the same time I have to use what works for me. Not being able to boot and log in is kind of a big deal. :P

Is there anything I can do or try? I want to keep the OS's I run all the same, so if Fedora 12 bombs out on this laptop, it has no chance on the other servers I plan to run at work. So far openSuSE is running without a hitch but I'd really like to give Fedora 12 a chance....

Fedora :: Amarok Freezes During Splash Screen FC12/Gnome?

Jan 3, 2010

Just installed Fedora 12 stable release without checking office/productivity, server, or developer "package options". Running Gnome.Used yum to get Amarok on here, and it freezes almost immediately every time I try to open it. The splash shows, a program shows up on the window-manager panel labeled "KDED Glob..." and the system freezes. Mouse, keyboard, all unresponsive. I had FC12 Beta on this exact system and Amarok worked fine. Noting that KDED Glob is probably part of KDE, and that I did not install KDE, I thought maybe Amarok depends on a KDE component that the repo did not pick up as a dependency. Tried to install as much of the mainstream KDE components as I could, with no change.

Ubuntu :: Fedora's Grub Messed Up Login Splash Screen?

Jun 4, 2011

I installed Fedora on a separate partition and during the install prompts forgot to uncheck the Grub installation. So, Fedora installed with Grub 1 (imagine that) although I was able to find instructions to upgrade it to Grub 2 (plus it recognized all the OS on the computer). So far so good, I don't have a preference whether Fedora's or Ubuntu's Grub is installed, however the Ubuntu Startup Splash screen is messed up, ie. a simple purple background with "Ubuntu" in system fonts. Is there a way to fix this back to the graceful default splash screen? Can I change back the Grub to be Ubuntu's?

Fedora :: Control Panel Which Applies And The Splash Screen Is Devoid Of A Selection?

Apr 3, 2011

I'm moving from Ubuntu to Fedora 13 and note,to my delight, that ICEWM is an option. I much prefer that, or Joe's WM to the biggies like Gnome or KDE.the problem is how do I select ICEWM? I feel sorta stupid here. I see nothing on the menus or the control panel which applies and the splash screen is devoid of a selection. That leaves the command line. Have I missed something?Is there no GUI to do this with? How do I change to ICEWM?

Ubuntu Installation :: Freeze Screen After Reboot And Get Past The Splash Screen?

May 12, 2011

When I install Ubuntu 11.04 with Wubi, I get this freeze screen after I reboot and get past the Ubuntu splash screen: url

As you can see, it's a scrambled picture of my Windows desktop. This happens with every other version of Ubuntu also.

I'm running a 64-bit PC and I don't wanna waste another CD or use a USB to install, because I actually progress further in my efforts whenever I use Wubi.

Ubuntu Installation :: Booting - Screen Froze After The Splash Screen

Jul 21, 2010

I received the Ubuntu CD by mail the other day and tried to install a dual boot with it. I first tried it out by running from the CD and the first problem I had was the screen froze after the splash screen. So I lurked around for a bit and found out that I can press any key on the screen with the keyboard and person to get to a different screen. At this screen I entered "F6" and then entered "nomodeset", this allowed me to pass the splash screen.

Next, I got into Unbuntu but I found out that the keyboard and mouse weren't working, so I lurked again and found out that I have to enter "noacpi" (sorry if I got that wrong, I forgot the name ). I ran by CD once more and everything worked, so I decided to finally install it next to my Vista. However, after installing it goes straight to the splash screen, and the freezing happens again. The screen where the keyboard and the person are not showing up so I have no idea how add the "nomodeset" and "noacpi". So my question is, how do I get to the screen where I can add both those things? Also, is there a way to add it permanently so I don't have to keep pressing F6?

Ubuntu :: Will Not Load GUI -- Screen Flashes At Splash Screen

May 21, 2010

Out of nowhere Ubuntu (intrepid, I believe) has stopped loading for me. When it attempts to load gdm the screen starts flashing at the splash screen and then eventually dumps me to the terminal. From there I can login without any problems but can not get the GUI to load.

When I run sudo gdm-binary it does the flashing splash screen again and then spits out the error message: WARNING: Unable to find users: no seat-id found. Then a few warnings about longest graphic displayed 2.5xxx seconds
I tried running sudo dpkg-recondifigure gdm and relaunch gdm as above and it did the same thing.

I was not able to successfully connect to my wireless network through the terminal to try to update in the hopes of that fixing the problem. Perhaps someone can give me instructions on how? (I have tried but can not figure out how to initialize wlan0).

Or, is there something I can do from my installation CD?

Ubuntu Installation :: Get The 10.10 Splash Screen For A Second Then A Blank Screen?

Dec 22, 2010

I have been running 10.04 quite successfully, when I upgraded to 10.10, I have a problem with the newer kernels. If I let it boot into the latest one 2.6.35-23, I get the Ubuntu 10.10 splash screen for a second then a blank screen, same with 2.6.35-22. I have to run with 32-25 to get it to load the gui.

Ubuntu :: No Splash Screen / Why Is So?

Jun 1, 2010

I installed 10.04 on my Toshiba laptop, but for some reason there is no violet splash screen with the "Ubuntu" word when the system is loading. Instead there is a bald dash in the upper left corner that keeps blinking and then it is changed by regular font dash, then there are some letters (like system is checking something?) and that's it, one second after my desktop welcomes me. What could be the problem? I feel like I haven't had such a problem when I was installing it on another computer. Though it might be because I am installing from USB drive, but not, installed from CD with the image recorded and still the same problem.

I want to set a different splash screen instead of the one that shows up just before and just after I log in (Ubuntu and the loading bar)

I installed gnome-splashschreen-manager and through that I set the splash screen to another jpg image but this doesnt seem to work. I dint see any difference after rebooting. Am I doing something wrong in GNOME Splash Screen Preferences? This method seemed really straight forward.

Hardware :: Don't See A Splash Screen

Feb 19, 2011

[URL] I'm using 10.10 64, it's on its own hard drive so no partition. I installed over W2K. The computer is a dual boot, but with 2 hard drives, so I boot into whichever by the BIOS. Since I boot that way, I don't see a splash screen, but info. I did get an ati radeon video card installed in a pci slot, as the one on the MB was going. The computer is not crashing, but I can't seem to do much with terminal with this error. I don't think the tech flashed the BIOS, unless you have to for a new video card. But I have been reading the boot menu for years and since I switched to Ubuntu, there is new stuff in it. I'm not sure what MB I have, but I have a preference for AMD chips, so it could be an ASUS, I'd have to look. It is a dual core 3600, and I know I have enough ram as the other drive is XP and runs Photoshop exclusively. I had the computer built around Photoshop, and update the computer as I update PS. The 2K drive was mostly for internet and email.

OpenSUSE :: Armarok 2 Splash Screen

Dec 30, 2010

To change your Armarok splash screen, open your file manager in SU mode and rename the .jpg you wish to be your new splash as "splash_screen.jpg" and then copy it to "root>usr>KDE4>apps>armarok>images", overwrite the existing file and your new splash screen will take effect the next time you load the application. As a note this will only work for the KDE4 users. I don not run gnome so i do not know how to do it in that system, I would assume it is very similar.

Ubuntu :: Getting Rid Of KDE Cursors And KDE Splash Screen?

May 3, 2010

Some time ago I installed KDE on my machine, though I use gnome as the default. (I rarely login on KDE) .Since then, when I login in my default gnome I get those futuristic KDE cursors, which I hate by the way. I've been trying to go back to my default cursors but I've had no success. I go to System -> Appearance -> Customize -> Pointer and then I select Default Pointer or even DMZ (white) I click on close twice and nothing happens. I've even removed the "oxygen-cursor-theme" using the package manager. How can I get my default mouse cursors back?

On the same note, before I get the login screen and after clicking on logout/restart I get a Kubuntu blue (splash?) screen, I'd prefer not to get this screen. how to get rid of this, too? (Getting rid of the cursors would be most important, but if I can get rid of this screen it'd be nice, too)

Ubuntu :: No Splash Screen In Lucid?

May 23, 2010

I recently installed from scratch the Lucid Lynx, and after changing the direction of the window buttons and a few things more (who was the idiot who thought on having a purple terminal?), I completely loved it.

I had one problem through, is that when I boot my computer, there is no splash shown. After the GRUB menu, all I see is a black terminal with no text for some time, and then a quick view of some colored text. Does anyone else have this problem? Here is the appropriate section of the grub.cfg file:

Code:
menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32-21-generic' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
recordfail
insmod ext2

Ubuntu :: No Plymouth Splash Screen On 10.04?

Jul 1, 2010

I just installed Kubuntu 10.04 on my Desktop computer. Prior to KDM loading, all I get is a blank, black screen with no Plymouth splash screen. I'm confident that this issue is not related to KDE but would apply to all Ubuntu variants. Here are my computer specs:

Kubuntu 10.04 x64 running with all updates
Dell Studio Desktop
Intel Quad-Core Processor 2.66Ghz
8GB ram
Intel Integrated Graphics

I should note that I have full desktop effects running smoothly under KDE with compositing enabled, so my integrated graphics is not necessarily the problem unless Plymouth is not loading the graphics drivers successfully.
