Same problem here on debian testing with 1.3.6-5. My current workaround: - Open a root shell (via ctrl+alt+f1) - Stop slim via: /etc/init.d/slim stop (it is stopped via systemctl) - Start slim by simply entering slim I would guess it has something to do with the systemd startup scripts. Cheers R

I wonder if it may be the fix for #860465 which is the only thing which looks remotely fishy in the changelog. FWIW I do not have plymouth installed on the affected system.
