Title:
  no splash screen on shutdown

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

  When shutting down the system, there is no splash screen - just a wall
  of text (including a segfault) -- see attached screenshot.

  This isn't a crash or critical bug, more of a design/usability issue
  which detracts from the overall Ubuntu 'slickness'.

  It would be cool to have some kind of splash screen telling the user
  "we're shutting down now" rather than the traditional Linux "stopping
  services" text wall
