I installed Maverick (beta, daily build) and this bug occured on the
first boot. KDM appeared after a reboot. I see this every day on 8

irritating. Please consider reopening the bug.

boot hangs on splash screen, doesn't switch
I don't think this has anything to do with video drivers. It occurs randomly on
some machines and always on others.
The problem never occurs when 'quiet splash' is removed from
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub
(Thread on kubuntu-users:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-use
This problem was fixed for me just by doing "dpkg-reconfigure kdm".
After that, the switch from Plymouth to KDM worked fine. Also, I am
running the splash screen with "nomodeset" in Grub. That's because I'm
using the Nvidia proprietary driver.

Ok, this was a red herring because the code in the plymouth pre-stop job
*never* matches: $UPSTART_EVENTS is not set when the job is being
stopped, instead the variable set is $UPSTART_STOP_EVENTS. So the

Mackenzie, it's not a workaround for plymouth not quitting properly on
starting gdm, it's the code that's necessary to provide a smooth,
flicker-free transition from plymouth to X. To get the same flicker-
free behavior on Kubuntu, similar handling will need to be implemented
in kdm, but the curre
the only way to get that is to call plymouth quit --retain-splash

Scott's latest patch to gdm checks to see if plymouth's running and if it is
whether it has the active vt, and if it does, starts gdm. If it doesn't have
the active vt, it kills plymouth and starts gdm. Is this a workaround for
plymouth not quitting properly on starting gdm either, or...?
--
I see that kdm does have a patch,
kubuntu_104_kdm_active_vt_plymouth.diff, which is meant to make kdm take
over smoothly from plymouth. However, plymouth's upstart job is
currently configured "stop on starting kdm", so kdm will never be able
to query plymouth for the active VT because it's already
