[Bug 1370707] Re: Plymouth does not display the graphical boot splash

[David]

I'm experienceing the same bug as mentioned from comments #25 onwards
with Lubuntu 16.04 i386. The PC is an eMachines EL1600. This could be
related to the kernel. When I was running Lubuntu 14.04 with the 3.13
kernel, Plymouth worked as it should. When I updated the kernel to 3.16
a similar bug with the Plymouth theme was exprienced (basically half the
screen being displayed) and that was fixed when I went back to the 3.13
kernel.

Bug description:
  When booting from Ubuntu 14.10 daily-live image from 17th September
  2014 Plymouth does display the graphical boot splash. However, once
  Ubuntu 14.10 is installed Plymouth does not display the graphical boot
  splash while the system is booting. Instead just a black screen is
  present up until Unity Greeter is loaded.
