Sorry, it seems I need to collect a bit more information from testers to
really see whether we're making progress here.  If you're testing the
fix from comment 52, please do the following:

 - make sure you have the plymouth package installed (sudo apt-get install 
plymouth)
 - copy the plymouth-splash.conf to /etc/init (sudo cp plymouth-splash.conf 
/etc/init/plymouth-splash.conf)
 - reboot, to test.

Then in your report, please provide all the following information:

 - did you see an Ubuntu logo at boot?
 - if so did it disappear before the spinning X cursor appeared?
 - if you don't see an Ubuntu logo, do you see a blue and white bar at the 
bottom of your screen?
 - show the output of 'cat /proc/fb'
 - show the output of 'ps aw | grep X.*vt'
 - if you have nvidia video hardware, please mention if you're using nouveau or 
the binary driver.
 - does the problem with X freezing persist for you?
 - if you *don't* see the Ubuntu logo at boot, or if it disappeared before the 
X cursor appeared, and X does not freeze for you, is this reproducible across 
multiple reboots or do you still sometimes hit the freeze?

Since the fixed plymouth-splash.conf does seem to improve things for
some (but not all) users, and I have a theory why this should be, I'm
going to go ahead with uploading that change.  I will still need to
collect the above information in order to figure out the remaining
problems.
