Title:
  Plymouth seems to kill all tty's on my native resolution

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

  Hy!

  I tryed to get plymouth to work on my note's native resolution
  (1280x800), with the nvidia binary drivers.

  I found that if I tune the grub.d/000_header file to set
  gfxpayload=keep (as suggested somewhere) and set GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x800
  in /etc/default/grub then plymouth works as expected on startup...
  then X loads properly, but when I switch to any tty's I can see only
  the first line of them at the bottom of the screen (last line), and at
  shutdown, plymouth uses only that bottom part of the screen (a purple
  line appears at the bottom in approx 2 terminal lines height)

  If I keep the grub settings, but boot without the splash option the
  tty's working properly on my native resolution..
