How do I stop the echo of commands on ubuntu startup ?

An image of what I'm talking about:

enter image description here

Ubuntu Desktop normally shows a splash screen during boot up, but for some reason (or perhaps an installation issue), in my PC, it shows a verbose list of messages in text mode.

May I fix this without reinstalling ubuntu?


Now I'm sure the origin of the problem is this:

  • I installed Windows and, since the boot-loader was modified with no dual boot available, I created a new GRUB file using Puppy Linux Live CD (FAST AN EASY SOLUTION). Almost everything ok, except the problem I'm stating here. Any ideas about how to fix it?
  • Grub File (produced by Puppy Linux):

    # menu.lst produced by grub4dosconfig-v1.9.2
    color white/green yellow/blue white/black green/black
    #splashimage=/splash.xpm
    timeout 10
    default 0
    
    # Full installed Linux
    
    title Ubuntu
      uuid 4a0cefa3-46a8-4143-8fbd-1872c641c9a4
      kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda5 ro
      initrd /initrd.img
    
    # Windows
    # this entry searches Windows on the HDD and boot it up
    title Windows\nBoot up Windows if installed
      errorcheck off
      find --set-root --ignore-floppies --ignore-cd  /bootmgr
      chainloader /bootmgr
      find --set-root --ignore-floppies --ignore-cd  /ntldr
      chainloader /ntldr
      find --set-root --ignore-floppies --ignore-cd   /io.sys
      chainloader /io.sys
      errorcheck on
    
    # Advanced Menu
    title Advanced menu
      configfile /menu-advanced.lst
      commandline

Well at the moment you are using puppy linux's grub4dos to boot

You need to reinstall Ubuntu's grub.

sudo grub-install /dev/sda  #if booting in legacy mode

or

sudo install-grub  #if booting in EFI mode

then

sudo update-grub
