I've generated the package with that patch in the ppa:
https://edge.launchpad.net/~guadalinex-members/+archive/ppa

And I have tested on a Ubuntu Jaunty box. I think it was a alpha6, but it's already updated to the todays packages.

I run the next steps:
 1- I put the file in the correct place: /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
 2- Removed the old '/boot/grub/menu.lst'
 3- Run 'update-grub'
 4- I checked the new /boot/grub/menu.lst and it showed what was spected:
  uuid [UUID value]
  splashimage=/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
 5- I rebooted the system and the splash image showed up.

This patch seems to work fine and now follow all the advices Colin give me.
The branch has also the patch.
