suse like tty for ubuntu

Actually it shouldn't require anything more than changing a few lines in the responsible config file (definitely no kernel patching required), at least that's how I did it in previous Ubuntu versions.

But like I said, the startup procedure has changed a bit since then, and as I'm happily using the graphical boot I can't really test how it would be done in 10.10.

edit:
If you want to try it, this should work (I take no responsibility in case it doesn't work or things go horribly wrong ):

You need to edit /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh
Find the "echo '[ ok ]" -line in the log_end_msg() (should be line 112), and replace it with following lines:

printf '[ '
$TPUT setaf 2  # green
printf ok
$TPUT op  # normal
echo ' ]'

Save the file, and the "ok" messages during boot should now be green. (error messages should already have colors by default).

edit2: works fine on my 10.04 virtual machine, so it should work for 10.10 as well.

Actually plymouth isn't working for me. I tried really a wide range of solutions. So finally I gave up and disabled plymouth and as it was looking traditional I thought of giving up some colors to it. Anyhow I'm happy with what I have now
