Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: plymouth

This is what happens: Every now and then, ubuntu seems to freeze in
plymouth while displaying the logo and the spinning dots. Normally, the
boot-up prozess on my ATI R300 equipped Thinkpad R52 works smooth (and
looks great, by the way), but sometimes, the spinning-dots are displayed
a lot longer these time while the hdd-led keeps on until after sometime,
the dots stop moving and nothing happens anymore.

These two facts seem to be related to this problem:
1.) It is the first startup process on the laptop since powering it completly 
off. It doesn't seem to happen after reboots or even if i started win7 before 
booting in ubuntu on the machine.
2.) i do skip the grub-menu by pressing enter or another key which causes to 
but ubuntu before the grub timeout.

I my very incomplete understanding of how upstart/plymouth work, this
may be timing problem?
