Problem with ubuntu loading

[slinzex]

When I start my laptop: Dell Vostro 1720, it starts loading grub, I select Ubuntu, and after that, appears one image of ubuntu logo
and few points, like loading...
I show it :

Since I updated to ubuntu 10.04, I had this problem

1- How to change it ?

I tried a lot of things while googling... but didn't solve it yet.

2- When I install StartupManager, it appears only with two options: Startup Options and Advanced. And there I can't change the ubuntu loading image.
If we check google images, we can see more than this... I suppose this is caused by ubuntu startupManager download link....

3-I tried copy by different ways the splash.png. With gnome-conf, setting the key in apps...splash.png. Didn't work. Also I tried
to replace "/usr/share/images/xsplash/bg_2560x1600.jpg" to another pic I have, but no result.

Hi and welcome to the forums

We need some more information please:

Try to boot into single user mode, and type in as root:

startx

If that does not work I can help you find the error by going through the verbose mode. If it's the logo I can disable it for you.

Why I need to do that?
Actually I can boot. That not is my problem. The problem is only the splash screen. Not the login splash screen, but the boot .

Can you explain a little more please?
Is your problem just with the screen you pictured? What is the problem with it?

[Quackers]

Do you mean the screen resolution? The writing is too big?

Go to Synaptic package manager and type in plymouth
select which plymouth themes you want to install and install them: Then run this below:

sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth

Now pick your choice by # and run

sudo update-initramfs -u

Now you have new Ubuntu plymouth theme installed

Before I see your answer, I did that but on other way. I installed with apt-get the plymouth GUI. Then I've chosen one of them, and activated plymouth. Then I restarted and just after grub, I can only see the blinking "_" and 6sec after ubuntu desktop. No more. So now, I arrived to the point where I have no image on boot.
But I want to install one.
