It likely is the same, yes. Personally, I stopped caring. I got tired of ubuntu shoving things like plymouth down our throats and came to realize that it was my fault for realizing that ubuntu was not the appropriate distribution for my needs anymore. It's meant for people who don't tinker with their systems, like windows like interactions with their computer, and it's often hard to change its behaviour as well as being a WONTFIX to make the distribution more configurable (like making plymouth optional).
So, I just went back to debian, and I'm happy camper. This doesn't fix this bug, but it fixes my problem :) As a side note, things like upstart and plymouth would have gone so much better if they had been carefully documented instead of being rolled out "mostly working and very undocumented" like they were. Thankfully at least upstart now has pretty decent documentation, so better late than never on that front. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665789 Title: plymouth breaks 'read' in initramfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/665789/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
