manny, this bug report is about having a flicker-free transition between plymouth and lightdm. There may be other sources of flickering on some systems, but these are separate issues. Please file bug reports with 'ubuntu-bug' for the issues you're encountering.
The kinds of regressions we would see as a result of a botched flicker- free transition to lightdm would be boot-time hangs or video corruption when lightdm starts. If you're not seeing either of these kinds of problems after applying this change, I think we can still consider this change good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/849954 Title: FFe: enable flicker-free boot with lightdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-flicker-free-boot/+bug/849954/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
