Description of problem:
It seems that the background for grub is not being displayed properly. See the following mailing list thread:
    https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2009-April/msg01075.html

I'm seeing this too, with a freshly-installed and -updated Rawhide. I've filed this against fedora-logos as that's where the splash.xpm.gz file comes from ...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grub-0.97-48.fc11.i586
fedora-logos-11.0.0-1.fc11.noarch


How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot and enter the grub menu

Confirmed. Mo, your grub boot splash is broken! Either that, or we're all on some really good drugs. :)

Comment 3 Máirín Duffy 2009-04-17 17:50:54 UTC

Comment 5 Tom "spot" Callaway 2009-04-17 18:46:24 UTC

If you want something to happen with your comment, it is best to reopen the bug.

Comment 8 Lubomir Rintel 2009-04-19 18:57:57 UTC
splash.xpm that is present in fedora-logos-11.0.1 is doubly gzipped.

I fixed that in the fedora-logos-11.0.1-2.fc11, leaving this open since upstream will probably want to fix that in the next tarball relase as well.

Comment 9 Tom "spot" Callaway 2009-04-20 14:01:16 UTC
I've pushed the fixed splash.xpm.gz into git, so I'll inherit it in the next new tarball. Closing this out.
