[Bug 1030094] [NEW] LVM encrypted, screen turned off after grub

[Fabio Marconi]

Public bug reported:

Hallo
Testing Ubuntu server mad64 20120727:
Performing an installation of lvm encryption at the reboot the screen is switched off just after grub.
To have the system working we need to remove, from the boot line, the splash entry.
Doing so we will have the passphrase request in a black screen.
If instead we remove the vt_handoff entry the splash will be shown, but the passphrase request will appear in a bad position
 at the center of the screen on a background purple with Ubuntu 12.10 written.
Thanks
Fabio
