During a normal boot, after the first animated white dot turns red, the following was observed:
- pressing SHIFT once: no effect - pressing ESC once: takes you to a verbose screen as if quiet splash was commented out and then offers the usual multi user login screen - LeftAlt+F1: gives a black screen with a small blinking underscore in the upper left corner, followed by the usual multi user login screen - RightAlt+F1: same as LeftAlt+F1 Note that each of the above 4 tests were conducted with 1 boot, so 4 distinct boots were required to cycle through the tests. I will wait for your feedback before testing the rest: - if logged in, log out - switch to VT1 with Ctrl+Alt+F1 - log in as root (or log in as admin user and run sudo -s, if you don't have a root password) - run 'service gdm stop' to shut down X - run 'service plymouth start' to start the plymouth daemon - run 'plymouth splash; sleep 30; plymouth quit' as a single commandline -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/701060 Title: Boot failure -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
