Bilal, X sends no requests at all to plymouth. The display manager (gdm, kdm, etc) does this; and each of these DMs are patched in Ubuntu to send plymouth a quit request at the appropriate time. If you are not using the Ubuntu 10.04 packages for the display manager, it's possible this is the cau

Hence, I have made a patch on my sys (testing right now) which is more of a 'hack' rather than a fix, since it instructs plymouth to quit on deactivate requests as well. Should work well, since during the boot phase, its the only time it gets a deactivate request. -- Pressing Enter crashes both X

I got the reason why this is happening. When X starts up, it sends a deactivate request to plymouth and not a quit request. So, plymouth keeps running, and it interprets the keypresses of enter and 2 to be of a quit request. -- Pressing Enter crashes both X and plymouth in graphical mode https://
