[Bug 1094671] Re: plymouth doesn't shows anything

[Steve Langasek]

please run 'apport-collect 1094671' from the affected system.

If I understand correctly, you're using the nvidia binary drivers.
Those drivers explicitly blacklist the use of any kernel framebuffer
interface, which makes it impossible for plymouth to display any splash
screen.

Title:
  plymouth doesn't shows anything

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
  Release:	12.04
  plymouth  plymouth 0.8.2-2ubuntu30

  I installed plymouth  and plymouth-manager, changed grub settings to
  make it work with nvidia X server, installed some theme and tried more
  times both manual and automatic mode, but it has never showed boot
  animation.  I just see the normal ubuntu logo and a black empty screen
  lasting about one minute.  I cannot also uninstall plymouth because it
  requires to uninstall many packages.  it might be a probem with grub2,
  kernel 3.0.35,  plymout,  nvidia server.  boh.
