Bug#526941: grub: Splashimage fails to load when xpm has DOS line-endings

[Jamie Thompson]

Package: grub
Version: 0.97-47lenny2
Severity: minor


Quite simple....I made an xpm using the Win32 Gimp, and Grub wouldn't load the resulting
file, gzipped or otherwise.

Loading the xpm in vi and converting it to unix line endings rectified the problem. Ideally
Grub should be able to handle this on it's own...
