** Description changed: Binary package hint: plymouth The transition between Plymouth and GDM is far from smooth, involving (in my experience) a brief black screen. This needn't be the case if this post (http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/plymouth/2009-June/000126.html) regarding a smooth Plymouth➔GDM transition in Fedora is accurate. Details of how the Fedora developers allegedly* achieved this smooth transition are available via the above link. I don't know whether this is technically feasible, or even desirable, within Ubuntu. However that non-smooth Plymouth➔GDM is a blight on an otherwise splendid start-up process. *I have no direct experience of Fedora + --- + Architecture: amd64 + DefaultPlymouth: /lib/plymouth/themes/elementary-logo/elementary-logo.plymouth + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release amd64 (20100429) + MachineType: Sony Corporation VGN-FZ31M + NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia + Package: plymouth 0.8.2-2ubuntu5.1 + PackageArchitecture: amd64 + PccardctlIdent: + Socket 0: + no product info available + PccardctlStatus: + Socket 0: + no card + ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-23-generic root=UUID=2e0a2b81-aa09-4534-a56d-4715bff57a7f ro quiet splash + ProcEnviron: + LANG=en_GB.utf8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcFB: 0 EFI VGA + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-23.41-generic 2.6.35.7 + Tags: maverick + TextPlymouth: /lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-text/ubuntu-text.plymouth + Uname: Linux 2.6.35-23-generic x86_64 + UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout fuse lpadmin plugdev sambashare + dmi.bios.date: 12/21/2007 + dmi.bios.vendor: Phoenix Technologies LTD + dmi.bios.version: R2110J7 + dmi.board.asset.tag: N/A + dmi.board.name: VAIO + dmi.board.vendor: Sony Corporation + dmi.board.version: N/A + dmi.chassis.asset.tag: N/A + dmi.chassis.type: 10 + dmi.chassis.vendor: Sony Corporation + dmi.chassis.version: N/A + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnPhoenixTechnologiesLTD:bvrR2110J7:bd12/21/2007:svnSonyCorporation:pnVGN-FZ31M:pvrC6005QFD:rvnSonyCorporation:rnVAIO:rvrN/A:cvnSonyCorporation:ct10:cvrN/A: + dmi.product.name: VGN-FZ31M + dmi.product.version: C6005QFD + dmi.sys.vendor: Sony Corporation ** Attachment added: "BootDmesg.txt" https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/727136/+attachment/1879416/+files/BootDmesg.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727136 Title: Transition between Plymouth and GDM is not smooth -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
