Similar situation here. was getting only a purple screen since upgrade to natty. I removed the plymouth fixes that I had applied in maverick and now I get the text plymouth, but its wierd.. the text mode only takes up the top left corner of my screen because it's (apparently) booting in the correct resolution. I still do not get the graphical plymouth on startup, only on shutdown.
To get the text plymouth here is what I did: in /etc/default/grub: removed "nomodeset video=uvesafb:mode_option=1680x1050-24,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap" from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX removed line: GRUB_GFXMODE="1680x1050" in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules: removed line: uvesafb mode_option=1680x1050-24@60 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap then ran "update-grub" After this I get a text plymouth, but its tiny, and only takes up the upper-left corner of my screen because apparently the machine is booting in normal resolution, but is not using the graphical plymouth. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771905 Title: No logo at boot on nvidia card -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
