The information attached to your bug report shows several system configuration errors:
DefaultPlymouth: Error: command ['readlink', '/etc/alternatives/default.plymouth'] failed with exit code 1: TextPlymouth: Error: command ['readlink', '/etc/alternatives/text.plymouth'] failed with exit code 1: So you have no valid plymouth theme configuration on this system. This may cause unexpected behavior. But as for the plymouth process running after boot, the bug report also shows this: CurrentDmesg: [ 15.224003] init: lightdm main process (818) killed by TERM signal This suggests that a bug in lightdm may be preventing plymouthd from being stopped correctly, since it's lightdm that stops plymouthd. > Is there a way to use init in order to launch plymouthd at shutdown ? This question seems to be unrelated to the rest of your bug report. The system already launches plymouthd at shutdown. ** Package changed: plymouth (Ubuntu) => lightdm (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074843 Title: plymouth programs are running altough system startup finished To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1074843/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
