[Bug 205990] Re: [hardy] splash screen disappears after a few seconds

[professordes]

My 10 cents worth:

I was puzzling why my bootsplash had vanished on some (but not all)
machines upgraded to the Hardy beta when I found this thread. The
suggested fix works for me:

On all the machines concerned the UUID in /etc/fstab and  /etc
/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume was indeed wrong.

The observation is that on all these machines I had also installed 64
bit Ubuntu after the original 32 bit install and told it to use the same
swap partition. Presumably the 64 bit install had assigned a new UUID to
the swap partition but it hadn't  had any  side-effects until the
upgrade.
