"With the vesa driver, the screen goes alive when gdm starts." Doesn't that imply you already have a way to boot with vesa?
If it's a framebuffer issue, booting without 'splash' on the kernel commandline should be enough to bypass the problem. If you have the same behavior when booting without 'splash', this is probably a kernel bug rather than a plymouth bug. -- System fails to boot with plymouth installed (radeon driver with only 1 display) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
