[Bug 1240376] Re: Plymouthd constantly using 5% of CPU time

[Steve Langasek]

Kubuntu 12.04 uses kdm as its login manager; kdm is responsible for
stopping plymouthd before it launches X.  Reassigning to kdm, since this
problem has not been reported when using lightdm.

This may be related to bug #982889; it appears kdm has not implemented
the corresponding changes to improve reliability of plymouth handling at
boot.

You can check whether the fix for bug #982889 solves this for you by
editing /etc/init/kdm.conf on your system and changing the 'start' rule
to read:

start on ((filesystem
           and runlevel [!06]
           and started dbus
           and plymouth-ready)
          or runlevel PREVLEVEL=S)


** Package changed: plymouth (Ubuntu) => kde-workspace (Ubuntu)
