[Bug 1309617] Re: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (189) terminated with status 1 at boot

[GeeMac]

Hello,

I am having the same issue here with Plymouth..
There is no practical sense for me to post the same information that is in post #8 and others.

I am running a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty 64Bit and the usual updates. 
What is totally annoying is not only is there an issue with Plymouth, I have this mess scrolling up my screen every time I boot up and I can't seem to suppress this ugly message on my Home Theatre System.  Apparently Dmesg wants me to know that there is an issue and will be in my face until Plymouth is fixed or I can find a way to suppress the Dmesg text after Grub runs.

Title:
  plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (189) terminated with status 1 at
  boot

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I see this when I boot (I got it by running the dmesg command):
  [    7.631865] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (173) terminated with status 1
  [    7.632154] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
  [    7.670080] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (183) terminated with status 1

  [    7.706534] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning

  I don't know if plymouth-upstart-bridge is supposed to be running at all time but it doesn't on my machine:
  bbigras at ubuntunew:~$ ps ax | grep plymouth-upstart-bridge
   8784 pts/2    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto plymouth-upstart-bridge
