[Bug 693697] Re: Ocassionally text shown instead of plymouth in boot process

[Luke]

This will often happen on my Intell Atom N450/Acew Aspire 1 netbook. In
that case the cause is Plymouth trying to start before KMS is
initialized, causing the console to show if the  text theme is removed.
The workaround on this machine is to insert the code "sleep 2" in the
script just before calling plymouthd in /usr/share/initramfs-
tools/scripts/init-top/plymouth

Title:
  Ocassionally text shown instead of plymouth in boot process

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:

  After the grub selection plymouth does not seem to worl occasionally
  because sometimes it is shown but others it's text. I must be plymouth
  no matter what.
