I tried this steps, and it isn't working for me:
"Step 1: we must edit the /etc/default/grub file.
Open a terminal and paste this:
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
On line #18, uncomment (uncomment = remove the "#" in front of the line(
"#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480" and change the resolution to whatever you want. Here is
how it should look:
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768
Step 2: edit the /etc/grub.d/00_header file.
sudo gedit /etc/grub.d/00_header
And find the following line: "gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE}" (it's line 103 on my
computer) and under it, paste this:
set gfxpayload=keep
Step 3: update Grub 2:
To update the GRUB, simply run the following command:
sudo update-grub
Once you complete the above steps, restart the computer and you should see the
nice Plymouth screen like in the screenshot in the beginning of the post."
I'm still seeing blue progress bars instead of a nice plymouth splash...
If I revert the changes, do you guys think plymouth should work? Or what
can I do to fix that?

The blue/white progress bar isn't corrupted, it /is/ plymouth. You do have plymouth at startup; you don't have a graphical splash screen at startup, because the nvidia driver doesn't expose a framebuffer that plymouth can use to display graphics. The latter is an issue that should be addressed, but is separate from not getting *any* feedback on nvidia chips. -- [Lucid] plymouth does not display when using nvidia drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506717 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 0.8.0~-8 --- plymouth (0.8.0~-8) lucid; urgency=low [ Steve Langasek ] * Include label.so in the initramfs, as well as the font support files it depends on, needed for any text prompts or messages. This will bloat the initramfs substantially (about 3MB) and impact boot performance as a result, but the solution to that is to not include plymouth in the initramfs unless we know it's needed for prompting (e.g., cryptsetup). LP: #496765. * Move x11 renderer into a separate package, to avoid pulling GTK into the server install by default. LP: #509579. * debian/rules: fix up the dh_makeshlibs exclude path to match where we're currently installing. * src/plugins/splash/script/plugin.c: the script plugin has no support at all for text consoles, so if there are no pixel displays available, return an error so that plymouth can fall back to the text plugin. LP: #506717. * Always include the 'details' and 'text' themes in the initramfs, since plymouth uses these as built-in fallbacks and they're tiny. * src/main.c: when a splash plugin fails to load, make sure to unregister any related keyboard handlers. * don't let the password walk off the end of the dialog box. LP: #496782. * split the plymouth upstart job into plymouth and plymouth-splash, so that plymouth starts up early and doesn't have to race gdm; and stop unconditionally adding plymouth to the initramfs now that we can start it this way. * debian/plymouth.postinst: also set the theme on first install, or on upgrade from versions prior to 0.8.0~-7, because update-initramfs called before plymouth has been configured for the first time will accidentally cause a call to --reset to use the text theme instead of the intended default. * debian/plymouth.plymouth-splash.upstart: don't wait on tty-device-added, these are now guaranteed to be available; copied from gdm upstart job. * Depend on mountall (>= 2.0) to ensure we have the above guarantee. * Mark /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-bottom/plymouth executable, otherwise initramfs-tools skips it.

The text fallback wasn't working because the script plugin, despite having no support for non-framebuffer output, wasn't telling plymouth this. I've applied a patch to bzr that fixes this. I'm not sure if we should consider this bug closed, or if we should be targeting getting plymouth running in GUI mode on vga16fb systems.

[Bug 506717] Re: [Lucid] plymouth does not display when using nvidia drivers
Oh, well, here's the problem when trying to use vga16fb. In
src/plugins/renderers/frame-buffer/plugin.c:
if (fixed_screen_info.visual != FB_VISUAL_TRUECOLOR ||
variable_screen_info.bits_per_pixel < 16)
{
ply_trace ("Visual is %s; not using graphics\n",
get_visual_name (fixed_screen_info.visual));
return false;
}
Since vga16fb is, by definition, less than 16 bpp (vga16fb = 16 colors =
4 bit indexed), if this is the only framebuffer available, the plymouth
framebuffer renderer won't work.
So we either need some working fallback to text output, or we need
someone to port this code to the VGA colormap...

[Bug 506717] Re: [Lucid] plymouth does not display when using nvidia drivers
I can confirm that Plymouth shows nothing but black on my system, which is using the nvidia-current drivers for its Nvidia Geforce 9600GT graphics card. However, when the moment arrives that ureadahead is killed, or when error messages are shown the black screen goes away and you see the lines of white text we wanted not to ruin our wonderful boot experience. However, GDM is loaded after a while, so my issues may be unrelated. If I should attach more information, please ask and I'll post it. The output of 'cat /proc/fb' here is "0 VGA16 VGA", just as the original reporter's. -- [Lucid] plymouth does not display when using nvidia drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506717 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
