Yes, of course. But I have not yet encountered my original problem after
the last update of plymouth (X dying far (even hours) into a session
when I hit enter), so this may in fact be fixed.

Instead, gdm now dies reliably when I hit enter for the first time during
that boot (which is new).

 Does plymouth show a graphical logo or do you see Ubuntu 10.04 written
 in text?

Neither. I do not use splash as a boot option, as mentioned earlier in…
this bug.

Sorry, I'm confused.

You said above that the problem still existed for you; then you said you
haven't encountered your original problem, but then you say you have had
a problem?

It's not at all clear to me what problem (if any) you're suffering from.

 Bug description:
 Binary package hint: plymouth

 Lucid adopted the Plymouth graphical splash service that uses the Kernel
 Mode Setting (KMS) facilities to provide a flicker-free graphical splash
 during start-up. For older video chipsets and drivers (e.g. intel i815) that
 *do not* support KMS plymouth falls back to using a text console (using the
 text plugin). It attaches to tty7 and outputs Linux terminfo control codes
 to draw a colour progress-bar at the bottom of the display.

 There is an unfortunate interaction between plymouth and X. X also uses
 tty7. When the X/GDM log-in screen appears for the first time plymouth is
 still running. A script triggers a quit message to the plymouth daemon. It
 seems that plymouth is waiting for either the 2 key or Enter key to be
 pressed, whereupon a SIGQUIT (signal 3) is sent to tty7. This causes both
 plymouth *and* X to terminate.

 So, if a password contains 2 or the user logs in by pressing Enter
 after typing their password, the user experience is that X 'crashes'
 (however, gdb reveals that X receives SIGQUIT).

 Some stray plymouth control codes can be witnessed on tty7 if X is stopped
 and tty7 console is on-screen.

 Upstart (/sbin/init) then restarts gdm (which launches X) and the second
 session performs correctly.

 *** A temporary workaround is to disable the plymouth-splash upstart job
 ***

 sudo mv /etc/init/plymouth-splash.conf
 /etc/init/plymouth-splash.conf.disabled

Why isn't there?  It's part of the plymouth package; if you have plymouth
installed you should have this file, and if you don't have plymouth
installed you don't have this bug.

If you have plymouth installed and have removed the file... you shouldn't do
that.  You will need to purge the plymouth package and reinstall it (sudo
apt-get purge plymouth; sudo apt-get install plymouth) to restore the
missing conffile.
