Sorry I haven't responded to this more quickly; I was busy with some
personal business last week. Thanks for the patch, and it does make GRUB
2's graphical menu load on my AO751h. :)

I noticed an odd lingering aesthetics issue though; most of the
background image is missing. The only parts of Squeeze's
`spacefun-grub.png' that are visible are the bottom of Earth and the two
stars on the top-right corner (basically, anything along the edges).
I've consistently reproduced this on two installations (one is a fresh
installation on a flash drive), even after purging and reinstalling
grub-pc and grub-common. The odd thing though is that it only happens
with desktop-base 6.0.5. The `spacefun-grub.png' from version 6.0.2 is
displayed in full.
