I'm not entirely sure this is a Plymouth bug, but here is what's going
on.

MacBook Pro 1,1 running latest Quantal.

This machine was running 12.04 just fine, then I upgraded it to 12.10.
Now, whenever I boot it, I just end up with a black screen, no login
screen, no apparent cursor, no response to keyboard.

If, at the grub screen, I edit the boot line and remove "quiet splash",
the machine boots to its login screen, although it sometimes takes quite
a long time.  I don't see much on the console output that indicates
what's going on though.

** Affects: grub (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: Confirmed
