Then GDM starts, and performs a fade-in animation of background gradient, and fade-ins Ubuntu logo. This results in visual flicker, where Ubuntu logo temporarily dissappears and instantly fades back in. This should be more smooth. For example, gdm could paint ubuntu logo at 100% opacity white without animation, whilst everything else fades- in. Or we could fade out ubuntu-logo in the spinner plymouth theme, such that on boot it is a tasteful pulsating logo that fades out, and back in.
