It is likely that this is a bug in your BIOS, not in an Ubuntu package,
and that there's nothing we can do about this. Plymouth can only
display on a kernel framebuffer, and you are using the nvidia binary
drivers, so the only interface we have available is the VESA one. If
your laptop's VBE doesn't include a 1920x1080 mode, there's no way for
us to put the display in this mode without using a native driver, and we
can't use the native nouveau driver because you've elected to use the
binary nvidia driver instead.
You can check what video modes are available in your BIOS by holding
down shift at boot time to get to a grub menu, pressing 'c' for a
console, and typing 'vbeinfo'. If there's no 1920x1080 mode there, then
there's nothing we can do.
Reassigning this bug to grub2, which is the package that handles the
VESA setup for us, in case this mode is available in the BIOS and we're
somehow failing to set it.
** Package changed: plymouth (Ubuntu) => grub2 (Ubuntu)
