I put together a theme for Burg called Sora. I got a friend of mine to
design it, and I thought it came out pretty well so if anyone else is
interested here it is. I haven't put much work into getting the
non-graphics mode working just yet, hopefully it'll look better down
the road. Screenshots in the next post.
To install just unzip the file sora-v0_3 into the /boot/grub/themes directory.
There are also a couple of sub-themes for it, a 'clean' version without text over the icons and an 'extended' version that'll hopefully fit entries with long names like the ones grub automatically generates.
You can choose the theme in your /boot/grub/grub.cfg or /etc/grub.d/40_custom and running update-grub, by adding the one of the lines:
. /boot/grub/themes/sora/theme.cfg

. /boot/grub/themes/sora/clean/theme.cfg
. /boot/grub/themes/sora/extended/theme.cfg
There's also two icon packs, I originally made the version that didn't pop, but decided I wanted the pop, but I left the other icon pack in just in case.
Available icon classes for these icon packs are: ubuntu, windows, osx and linux I can add more if there's any interest.
You can change the icon pack/screen resolution in sora/theme.cfg
The theme is designed to run at 1920x1200 resolution but it scales pretty well.
Cheers,
Evan

Your /etc/grub.d/40_custom file should contain only that last line ( . /boot/grub/themes/sora/clean/
theme.cfg ) , after the comments. Remember to run grub-update after modifying that file. And you're going to want to change that 'set gfxmode=' line in the file /boot/grub/themes/sora/theme.cfg
But it is strange, I would still expect you to not be seeing the default screen with that config. Just to make sure, can you print your output of dpkg -l | grep grub-pc

Hi,
The gfxmode="1600x900" or "1920x1200" as in /boot/grub/themes/sora/
theme.cfg might be a problem.

Well thats not the problem.
Perhaps you could describe the "default menu" you do see, - can you
boot linux?

Here is a listing of the burg -r 1778 modules for grub pc build which I am using to run sora.
You should have them all in /boot/grub/, or else need to reinstall burg (grub-install).
The standard ubuntu modules will not run the burg menu or sora. Possibly an update may have overwritten burg modules and boot code.

That is OK then.
The boot screen you posted does not match your previous post of
grub.cfg, there has been some change to grub.cfg, you can recheck
that. If you have another linux system /boot/grub/ it can be a
problem.
Apart from that I can only suggest re-install burg.
You might get some better help with booting multi systems from
ubuntuforums.org.
The boot screen you posted does not match your previous post of
grub.cfg, there has been some change to grub.cfg, you can recheck
that. If you have another linux system /boot/grub/ it can be a
problem.

i have two version of linux kernel : the 2.6.31-16 and the 2.6.32.3 it can be a problem?
However, i'll try to reinstall burg, perhaps from source code.

Perhaps you can try the ppa5, the config is much simpler, no need to
edit 40_custom manually, Document:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Burg
It's updated for the latest version: ppa5 (bzr r1786).

The problem can be the lack of the line GRUB_THEME= in /etc/default/grub?
I have added this line and i have update grub, but this is the output:
davide@davide:~$ sudo update-grub
Generating grub.cfg ...
Theme file not found.
In the tutorial at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Burg, are wrote that i must only add the name of the theme, but the update-grub returns the same error, i have also tried to add the entire directory of the theme (/boot/grub/theme ecc..) but the result are the same.
Obviously i have update burg at the last version.

You skip the step of downloading themes from files section of

The files has been updated, old one doesn't work. After it, you should
see files in the following directory:
/boot/grub/fonts/

It should be:
GRUB_THEME=sora
You also need to set screen resolution as the default value 640x480 is
too small for sora:
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768

Besides update-grub, you also need to install burg to mbr using grub-install.

No, you only need to run grub-install once after upgrade from grub to
burg, or different ppa package. BTW, this is assuming you're using the
pc version, you shouldn't use grub-install for EFI boot.
If it still doesn't work, please paste the content of the grub.cfg.

That's caused by invalid vbe mode. You can use vbeinfo command in grub
console to see what mode your card supports, then set GRUB_GFXMODE in
/etc/default/grub, for example:
GRUB_THEME=sora
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768

Thanks a lot, after examining Davide Marcelli's grub.cfg carefully,
it's indeed the issue. The line is actually:
insmod ${GRUB_VIDEO_BACKEND}
However, GRUB_VIDEO_BACKEND is only set when GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT is
gfxterm, which is the default. Perhaps you have uncommented the
GRUB_TERMINAL=console line as indicated by previous document ?
For now, a quick fix is to comment out GRUB_TERMINAL=console again, or
set "insmod vbe" explicitly in grub.cfg. This issue will be handled
properly in the next ppa package. BTW, this is what my
/etc/default/grub looks like:
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)
#GRUB_TERMINAL=console
# The resolution used on graphical terminal
# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480
# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entrys
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_THEME=sora
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768

The question mark is probably caused by gettext. It tries to translate
the text to native language, however, some font don't have the
required glyph. I'm thinking about disable gettext for menu items to
avoid such problem. A quick fix is to change locale before running
update-grub:
export LC_ALL=en_US
sudo update-grub

Increasing your resolution will make the table smaller in respect to the background. If you have any higher resolutions listed in your vbeinfo output you could try setting it to one of those values and see how that works.

Hi,
Right, I've changed directory structure. The new theme file is at:
http://code.google.com/p/burg/downloads/list
Download theme_fonts.zip and theme_sora.zip, extract to /boot/grub:
cd /boot/grub
sudo unzip ~/theme_fonts.zip
sudo unzip ~/theme_sora.zip
Then, edit /etc/default/grub, add these lines:
GRUB_THEME=sora
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768
Also, make sure GRUB_TERMINAL=console is commented out, otherwise you
would start in text mode.
If you've modified 40_custom previously, remove it as it's not needed anymore.
Finally, generate grub.cfg with:
sudo update-grub
