Hi
I had started using Ubuntu as my main OS and of late I have seen while
booting 10.04 it just shows a black screen I have to press the power button
once again and then power button once again to get it up an running, I
browsed the net and landed on the link which is shown below. They have
asked me to replace quite and splash with nomodeset, which I did and my
ubuntu does boot up, however while booting up now it shows lots of text
scrolling past the screen while it is booting. Is this normal ? Since the
OS shows black screen almost once in a day I need to wait for a couple of
more days to know for sure if it is completely fixed.

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
I ran update-grup after editing the above line in /etc/default/grub
