Karmic Boot Experience
Ubuntu Karmic will get a whole new, shiny and flicker-free boot experience. Another words, the sequence of events between switching on your computer and your desktop session will be largely redeveloped and redesigned.
New stuff includes:
* grub 2, which will be silent, only accessible on-demand (by holding down Shift during Bootloader initialization)
* KMS-powered experiences for the initial boot splash, password encrypted filesystem and disk-check
* Graphical boot splash that will be running on top of X-server, not Usplash
* Graphical OS Switcher available by pressing ESC during the startup sequence, also running on top of X
- GDM 2.
Concept
The standard boot sequence will not include Usplash any longer, instead, the X-session will be started right away. Therefore, the graphical boot splash screen will have the whole X-stack available, including hardware acceleration...
Fresh, innovative concepts is what we're looking for (in-line with Ubuntu branding of course!), in particular regarding the graphical boot splash (spinners, animations, artwork, etc.).

This is simple circle that glows into red. This idea was once for New Wave usplash but I had no time and knowledge how to realize it so if you find use of it I'll be very glad. --AntonKerezov

David Z's Loading Animation
After reading some simple email responses Iv decided to try this. It is a simple picture of the ubuntu logo with a progress bar, the background is a websafe #333 dark gray. My goal for this gif was 'lite'. ~David Zondlo

- David Z's animation looks nice to me, it think that adding a text, focusing on the animal, and lowering the saturation of the progress bar will improve this. currently, the progressbar calls the attention, so, we want the image to call our attention.

African Sunrise
In this idea the boot process shows an African sunrise, where the sun indicates the progress.

I really like this idea. The colours of the sky should change though as the sun rises. -- flimm 2009-06-29 16:16:02

Nice animation I like it. Would be natural next step to the current usplash with more effects. --AntonKerezov
