Title:
  Plymouth splash screen does not load up; vesa fb device error message
  displayed instead

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

  I tried to install a new splash screen in plymouth. Now I get a vesa
  fb device error just before the text-based splash screen shows up. The
  error message is displayed only for a very brief period, so I can't
  note it down. I am using version 270.41.19 of the NVIDIA drivers, on a
  Dell XPS 15 L501x notebook (Core i7 740 QM, NVIDIA GT435M, 6 GB DDR3
  RAM) running Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal 64-bit and GNOME3.
