I created that .conf file and put the content you requested into it.
The text is now a bit smaller, but still unacceptably ugly for a boot
sequence, particularly since I use this machine to show off Ubuntu Linux to
my non IT friends!
I demo to all how easy it is and not geeky etc.
This new text problem is so ugly and off-putting that I can no longer show
just anyone how good Linux is...
It's really a shame that this version of Ubuntu has such an ugly reversion
to old times when only PhD's could run Linux (I'm one ;-).
I hope you can fix it. Let me know if there's anything I can do.
Ciao,
bob.
