The log shows:
[ply-renderer.c] ply_renderer_open_plugin:trying to open renderer plugin /lib/plymouth/renderers/drm.so
[...]
[./plugin.c] load_driver:Attempting to load driver 'omapdrm'
[...]
[ply-renderer.c] ply_renderer_open_plugin:opened renderer plugin /lib/plymouth/renderers/drm.so

[./plugin.c] ply_renderer_head_map:Creating buffer for 1920x1200 renderer head
[./ply-renderer-libkms-driver.c] create_buffer:Could not allocate GEM object for frame buffer: 22
So the kernel is exposing a DRM interface which is not usable by
plymouth (or, according to what Oliver tells me on IRC, by anything else
either). Either the kernel needs fixed, or we need to blacklist omapdrm
so that we fall back to the framebuffer renderer instead, which is what
was used in precise and earlier.

Title:
plymouth in quantal on arm does only boot with black screen
Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
during the debugging of bug 1010009 it was found that plymouth only
shows a black screen on boot in precise instead of showing the splash
screen on boot . shutting down results in proper shutdown splash
behavior though.
