sachin_kothari was referring to the method mentioned in that release.

Installation:

Copy the file (*.xpm.gz) to e.g. /boot/grub/

(sudo cp *.xpm.gz /boot/grub)

Then add the following line to your /boot/grub/menu.lst:

splashimage=(hdx,x)/boot/grub/<filename>.xpm.gz

Change the (hdx,x) appropriately.

Your title says "setting Grub Splash" and now you are asking for boot splash.
May be this is what you want.

@Shashwat
The title is misleading. Anyways, here is what you are looking for: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/US...omizationHowto

It has not been tested by me so I can't give any guarantee that it'll work.

Before doing that you may try renaming the usplash theme you want to ubuntu-usplash.so or whatever the default name is and try.

apt-get install splashy(debian way for boot splash)? or if gnome boot splash=>apt-get install gnome-splashscreen-manager
