Title:
  System hangs at splash screen loading dots

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My system had been up and running without problems until I booted up about 5 days ago and the splash screen hung there with
  the dots continuously loading. After 3 mins, I pressed (any)  key which booted me into my Ubunto 12.04. Three days ago the machine booted into black screen with boot up selection commands. That day I  filed a "me too" bug report for issue #531650. It looked like individual report would do be betterso here we go.  I am still pressing any key to get the  hanging loading dots in the splash screen to boot into the OS sign-in.

   Ubuntu is the only OS on my Dell OPTIPLEX 760. I'm just a Linux lover with no programing skills - who can figiure her way around 
  hard or software enough to get by 89% of the time but I'm good at following directions when needed. I understand that apport
  will collect the needed information. Thanks!
