Steve does this change do more than adjust the plymouth-splash.conf? For others, I found that pressing Alt+SysRq+K as soon as GDM first loads fixes the problem temporarily. Running 'sudo apt-get remove plymouth' has fixed it permanently. -- Pressing causes X to freeze https://bugs.launchpad.ne

This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 0.8.0~-9ubuntu1 --- plymouth (0.8.0~-9ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low * Make plymouth-splash a service instead of a task, to make sure we only run it once per instance of plymouthd; and add an 'or starting gdm' to the start condition

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-sp

Had the same problems on my wife's laptop, a Dell XPS 1530 (Intel CPU, Lucid 64bit, NVidia GForce 8600M GT card). Uninstalling Plymouth seems to have solved it for now (although I think that is not what the devs of Plymouth aimed for...). Thanx for the information guys. cheers Tom -- Pressing
