Description
everytime i shut down 8.04 i see all the text come up and tell me everything that is happening behind the scenes and frankly i dont care.

on start up i have a nice animated logo type thing.
would be nice if i could have this on shutdown like on shutdown of pclinuxos

http://www.pclinuxos.com/

when it does a shutdown it has a nice logo and says press the escape key for verbose mode.

very professional

+1: the usplash shutdown screen comes up very late - it should pop up nearly instantly after X is shut down

Yes, I installed Ubuntu to my mother, and I was ashamed of those strange letters appearing when shutting down the computer. The same with my girlfriend.
