Public bug reported:
Text mode hits in for about a half a second every time one logs out or
shuts down the computer.
The attached video "Text-mode in logout and shutdown.webm" is a
combination of two clips showing this on one of my computers. This one
has slightly more text output than my other machines, but on every
machine it catches attention by being ugly and I'd guess "cryptic" or
suspicious for ordinary people in the otherwise smooth experience
starting from the bootup ubuntu logo.
Tested on up-to-date Ubuntu 12.04 on an Intel IGD graphics netbook,
Intel Sandy Bridge laptop and Radeon HD 4670 (open drivers) desktop
machine. The video is from the sandy bridge one.
xorg is most certainly wrong but that what ubuntu-bug got me for
reporting "screen corruption" :) Might be plymouth, might be lightdm?
