UPDATE: results are not consistently the same! I've performed some boot cycles now with the settings of of /etc/default/grub from my previous post and randomly in some cases the screen shows nothing and in some cases the boot messages and the login screen are visible.
Only if I comment out the line # gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode I always get a visible login screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173941 Title: Ubuntu 13.04 doesn't start/ show login screen/ after intallation or upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1173941/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
