[Bug 2054769] Re: Boot animation and login screen use different display scales

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 24.004.60-1ubuntu6

---------------
plymouth (24.004.60-1ubuntu6) noble; urgency=medium

  * Cherry-pick upstream fixes for consistent default scale selection
    that matches what Mutter chooses on the login screen (LP: #2054769)
  * plymouth.hook: Stop automatically re-installing DRM kernel modules in
    initrd. initramfs-tools already does this for us in hooks/framebuffer and
    should be the authority for which drivers to include.
  * Install a /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d/plymouth with
    FRAMEBUFFER=y to make it clear to initramfs-tools that we always want
    framebuffer support when Plymouth is installed. (LP: #1970069)

Title:
  Boot animation and login screen use different display scales

Status in Plymouth:
  New
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Boot animation and login screen use different display scales, on some
  (not many) machines.

  For example on a Microsoft Surface Laptop 4, Plymouth seems to use
  scale 2 for the boot screen while GNOME selects scale 1 for the login
  screen. This means the Ubuntu logo shrinks.

  I've tried a few laptops and so far it's only the Surface Laptop 4
  that has the problem: 13.5" 2256x1504, 201 PPI
