Hmm, both of the suggested workarounds seem to fail on a Macbook Air (Nvidia 320M) in the same way: causing a black screen with blinking cursor. Without the workarounds it's a purple screen with no cursor.
I still suspect there might be a related issue for systems which boot quickly, especially with fast SSDs. In those cases, maybe plymouth and plymouthd just never have time to do anything between the kernel finishing booting, and X (gdm) starting. Just a theory right now. I may find the time to try and prove it later... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771905 Title: No logo at boot on nvidia card To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/plymouth/+bug/771905/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
