To clarify, plymouth is not "merely decorative". It is the boot-time interface used for interacting with the user regarding any boot problems; so it's always present, and it needs to hand off control of the console reliably to lightdm, which means that the lightdm job can't start until it knows for sure plymouth has started up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kde-workspace in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982889 Title: X trying to start before plymouth has finished using the drm driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/982889/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
