    <description><![CDATA[With all the artists Ubuntu has, and Grub not going anywhere soon, could grub at least get a splash screen by default? It's much more appealing than the simple menu that exists now.<br />

  <description><![CDATA[Boot loader should be minimalistic.<br />It should be do one thing, and do it well.<br /><br />It should not be seen or heard, just immediately and silently pass control of the system to the kernel.<br /><br />It shouldn't have no bells and whistles. Shouldn't have no splash screens, icons, graphics, audio, etc.<br /><br />A bootloader is good when you're not aware of it.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[MighMos, we should be focusing on grub2. Grub2 looks like it may even support video's (at least the name of some of their libs suggest it )]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Well, I won't be satisfied until I can use my DVB tuner card on my GRUB boot screen before I boot up. :)<br /><br />But seriously, it wouldn't hurt to throw in a nice boot pic - it's just a pic. Fedora's GRUB pic looks nice, and it takes up bugger-all space. Eye-candy, static or otherwise, sells!<br />]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[@Eldmannen: The ability to do so is already written in GRUB(1). Its a single line in the config file that takes a .xpm file.<br /><br />@Auzy: I'm not talking about adding support for true-color 32-bit ARGB visuals, just adding a default 256 color pixmap, just like GRUB supports right now.]]></description>
