Actually, it's better in 10.04, because at least it shows the logo, even
if it's big and ugly. It screws up in all kinds of interesting ways in

I predict that this bug will affect that next LTS too. The frame buffer
doesn't support my monitor's resolution either, as I tried this fix
manually already. And it's a common resolution (1920x1080). The release
after the next should have been the one to include plymouth. Not 10.04.
