It's not at all clear why loading vesafb from the initramfs would have
any effect, given that /etc/init/udev-fallback-graphics.conf should
already ensure that vesafb is loaded before plymouth starts. It's
possible that vesafb needs to be loaded *before* the nvidia driver to

Applied as follows:

Hmm, both of the suggested workarounds seem to fail on a Macbook Air

Alternatively, another option that works for me: Find the following pre-

Try adding GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text to /etc/defaults/grub and that
should do it, you'll get the text splash at least. You might try setting
nomodeset kernel option, but it shouldn't be neccessary. quiet and
splash you can leave in. At least that's what I have here.
Hi Stephen, setting quiet splash or switching splash to off in the
config doesn't make a difference for me. I'll check the editing and
timeout workarounds later today. In any case I can confirm that I have
several OS installed which means that I see the grub boot menu. Thanks

I actually don't see the grub menu, since I have only Ubuntu 11.04

If you break into the grub menu, edit the grub option you want to boot,
and remote quiet splash from the linux command-line, you'll boot into
text mode, and hence see the crypt password prompt.

Hmm. I partially take that back. The actual content of the kernel
command-line isn't important. What is important is editing in grub (i.e.

If you edit /boot/grub.cfg and override the timeout lines to be

I dont' think it is. Bug 653477 is about Maverick, where the graphical

However on Natty this guide does not work anymore, as does any other
suggestion. Plus it seems to work at least kind of on Natty (i.e. I see

Yes, in Maverick it behaved differently. Plymouth used the text ubuntu
logo instead of the graphical one, but it worked as expected in every
other respect. By tweaking manually, you could have the graphical logo.
In Natty, absolutely nothing is displayed most of the time, just a
purple screen.
Luigi, if that is true then please clarify the description of this bug.

screen problem in maverick (before updating) as you have in natty.
