Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu Oneiric, since the July 11/12 udev, initramfs-tools, basefiles
(/var/run to /run ) changes, plymouth flickers to black, causing all
video output to cut off ("no signal" report from monitors) until
/etc/init/plymouth-upstart-bridge.conf runs, restarting video output.
If /etc/init/plymouth-upstart-bridge.conf is disabled as a test, video
does not resume at all, showing this to be what is bringing it back.
Booting with splash removed from the grub command line produces
continuing video output without this flicker, though no script for
logging output with plymouth produces output during this time (as my
scripts normally would on console).
Thus, it seems that either plymouth needs to be patched to adapt to the
/run changes, or that there is a problem elsewhere concerning video
devices during this transition.
** Affects: plymouth (Ubuntu)
