I noticed that inbetween the splash screen ending and GDM appearing, there is some text about startup stuff. Is there anyway to make the splash screen last longer or to hide the messages?Personally I don't mind seeing that kind of stuff, but having a splash screen and then the messages afterwards seems weird to me.

Plymouth splash screen is the animated screen you see after the grub (or grub2) menu in many popular Linux distros. And since the plymouth screen is a cool thing to play around, many linux users have created their own plymouth artworks.
I was having a problem with an older install of Ubuntu - I had only upgraded since probably 10.04 or so - where I would get logged off mostly randomly (but I think there was a connection with network activity... but that's beside the point).
I recently reinstalled Ubuntu 12.04 while keeping my home directory. I've had numerous issues, and now I am at this stage:
When the Ubuntu purple splash screen loads for the first time, it blinks for about 10 seconds, and then freezes (like it would normally before switching to login).
Hello. Sorry I'm such a newb, and I can't really contribute much.
I installed Lubuntu on wubi, and install went without a hitch! However, when I rebooted, it would always freeze at the Splash Screen with the five dots.
I've built a splash screen that loads a (splash) activity and then starts another activity and it works fine. (I've attached it below - it's called SPLASH 1)
I created another splash screen to replace this one which is supposed to only run once - then after creating a SharedPreferences boolean it is supposed to load another activity.
*Update: Link to article: it-nthusiast.blogspot.com * Wonderful. This is the new splash and shut down screen from Ubuntu 10.04 Alpha 3, updated 13.03.10. Unfortunately, I succeed to took only a few second of the new splash screen. This is the official splash screen that will be in the final release. Enjoy it.
I have a splash activity in my app that launches and then loads the main class after 5 seconds. I'm thinking of changing it to where the splash only displays on the initial launch of the app. I was thinking of just writing a text file to the filesystem and then checking to see if its there. If its found, then dont load the splash screen.
