When you boot from live CD, or doing the first boot after installing Ubuntu, splash screen looks awesome. But as soon as you enable nvidia-current driver, installed with apt-get, splash screen goes all crazy.
With crazy I mean that resolution is very low, font(I assume) is very weird and it all looks like it's been broken.
This happened with 10.04 and now again with 10.10.
How do I fix splash screen after enabling nvidia drivers?
That is easy. First of all:
sudo apt-get install v86d hwinfo
sudo hwinfo --framebuffer
This will show you your supported resolutions. Take note.
Then:
gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub
Search for - GRUB_GFXMODE=
below this you need to type:GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1024x768 <- your-resolution-here
Save the file and then:
echo FRAMEBUFFER=y | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-grub2
sudo update-initramfs -u
