Bug#613120: to the fringe and back

[Roderich Schupp]

I'm seeing this, too.
It's probably caused by the new code in grub-core/term/gfxterm.c,
search there for variable blend_text_bg. When this is set to 1 the
menu text will be
blended over the background image, otherwise it will replace the image.

But the only way to set blend_text_bg = 1 currently seems to use
the new command "background_color". Note that it must be invoked
_before_ setting background image.

I added the line marked with <--- to /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme and
ran update-grub and this got me back the complete spacefun image :)


 ...
        # ... and write our configuration snippet to stdout. Use the colors
        # desktop-base specified. If we're using a user-defined background, use
        # the default colors since we've got no idea how the image looks like.
        # If loading the background image fails, use the default theme.
        echo "insmod ${reader}"
        echo "background_color black"                             <---
        echo "if background_image
`make_system_path_relative_to_its_root "${1}"`; then"
        if [ -n "${2}" ]; then
                echo "  set color_normal=${2}"
...


Cheers, Roderich
