The x11.so message is irrelevant; we never want to be using the x11 renderer in the initramfs anyway.
The key section of the log is this: [./plugin.c] create_backend:creating renderer backend for device /dev/dri/card0 [./plugin.c] load_driver:Attempting to load driver 'i915' [ply-terminal.c] ply_terminal_open:trying to open terminal '/dev/tty7' [ply-terminal.c] ply_terminal_look_up_geometry:looking up terminal text geometry [ply-terminal.c] ply_terminal_look_up_geometry:terminal is now 80x25 text cells [./plugin.c] query_device:Could not initialize heads [ply-renderer.c] ply_renderer_open:could not query rendering device for plugin /lib/plymouth/renderers/drm.so [./plugin.c] close_device:closing device [./plugin.c] unload_driver:unloading driver [./ply-renderer-i915-driver.c] destroy_driver:uninitializing intel buffer manager [./plugin.c] create_backend:creating renderer backend for device /dev/fb0 [./plugin.c] open_device:could not open '/dev/fb0': No such file or directory So both the drm and fb renderers are failing at this point. This could be a race condition in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts /init-top/framebuffer. Could you try adding 'sleep 1' to the bottom of this script, run 'sudo update-initramfs -u', and check whether that fixes the problem? -- Plymouth does not display bootsplash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/579906 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
