if you want a faster boot install ureadahead...
aptitutde install ureadahead -y -q
Plymouth may be all wonderful in theory but practically is slower then usplash and buggy as hell.

I most certinly have the number 10 rather than 100. I couldn't find the relevant info to change that in the link you provided.
I have re-downloaded the .deb package
SNIP
the link says
Quote:sudo update-alternatives –install /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth default.plymouth /lib/plymouth/themes/mytheme/mytheme.plymouth 100
so the info is there, your just not looking.
of course you adapt that line to match your needs the 100 at the end is , you guessed it...

Thanks for the help. I ended up going back over the /etc/default/grub file and fixing an issue with it. I must have miss-copied the additional entries into it. That's why I got a syntax error when I tried to run sudo update-grub2. After that I was able to get it working with the proper resolution.

for those who want a new plymouth theme and properly debianized go here
https://launchpad.net/~team-iquik/+archive/xbmc-svn
resolution fixes must be applied if necessary
Its the classic silver xbmc with Media centre txt centered and aligned with xbmc in the orange official xbmc logo colour but in a radial gradient witha slight outer glow and the official green as the progress dot.
Looks great over the black screen.

X3lectric, is Media CenTRE ou Media CenTER? All of your logos inside PPA are writed "Media Centre".
Is it intentional, or just a simple mistake.

plymouth-theme-xbmc-logo.deb doesn't work with Ubuntu 11.04.
