Startup manager w/ splashy crash on debian Lenny

Asked by Kael_

Hi all

I' ve recently installed SUM with usplash, and it worked correctly, but as soon as i remove usplash and install splashy, it seems to crash with these msg :

Testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst
Searching for splash image ... found: (hd0,0)/boot/grub/splashimages/debian-moreblue-swirl.xpm.gz

Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-3-amd64
Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done

Traceback (most recent call last):

    self.set_splashy_widgets()
  File "/usr/share/startupmanager/gtk_frontend.py", line 367, in set_splashy_widgets
    splashy_themes = self.splashy.get_all_themes()

    place = lines.index('>Installed themes:\n') + 1
ValueError: list.index(x): x not in list

I wonder if anyone had this problem before...

i do not see how to fix this

Hm, that is what I got for screenscraping the splashy output. Something has probably changed in the way they print it.

I have filed a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/startup-manager/+bug/179897 to remind myself to fix it.
Please go to that bug report and attach the output of the command
splashy_config --info

This should be fixed in version 1.9.10: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/startup-manager/startupmanager_1.9.10-1_all.deb

Can you help with this problem?
