Title:
  screen goes blank before showing password prompt (inteldrmfb,
  cryptsetup)

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When booting the plymouth splash screen is shown for a second and then the screen goes blank.
  I have an encrypted the root partition so this makes it a bit difficult to input the password.
  Entering the password after some time when the screen is blank works fine though.

  Switching the VT with ctrl+F6, ctrl+F7 shows the plymouth password
  promt again but it's very distorted.

  Possibly a duplicate of bug #816267
