Title:
  plymouth: after installing proprietary nvidia driver, splash screen
  displays in low color/low resolution mode

Status in The Plymouth splash screen:
  New
Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

  While using the 'nouveau' driver during live CD installation, or after
  installation, plymouth displays the very pretty rebranded ubuntu logo
  at my native resolution, and supports a clean transition into the gdm
  logon screen.

  As soon as I install the proprietary NVIDIA driver (I only tested with
  "(version current) [Recommended]", this is 190 or 195, I believe, I'm
  sure the logs will indicate), plymouth displays the Ubuntu logo in
  what appears to be a 256-color mode, the resolution appears to be
  640x480.

  I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this further, so if this isn't
  immediately clear or a duplicate, you may need to provide detailed
  instructions if you need additional information from me.
