[Bug 771905] Re: No logo at boot on nvidia card

[Stephen Warren]

Hmm. I partially take that back. The actual content of the kernel
command-line isn't important. What is important is editing in grub (i.e.
at the grub menu, press e to edit, don't make any changes, then press
ctrl-x to boot). That works most of the time, but just occasionally
doesn't.

Title:
  No logo at boot on nvidia card

Status in The Plymouth splash screen:
  Confirmed
Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

  Hello,
  I have a Nvidia GeForce 8600M GS, with proprietary drivers, and I am using Ubuntu Natty.

  Since I updated to Natty (it was the Beta 2 version), plymouth only
  shows a purple screen, without logo and without dots. It's simply
  purple.

  Note that, before updating, I had already solved the issue which made
  plymouth show the Ubuntu logo textual theme instead of the graphic one
  with proprietary drivers on Nvidia cards, so I don't think it's
  related (unless some of the files I modified were reset during the
  update, I don't know). This time, however, I don't even get the
  "default" text theme.
