hi Steve.
I tried both with and without just now. With KMS (no 'nomodeset') the
screen went into vertical lines straight away and I did give that
another go. I rebooted again and used 'nomodeset'.
I have not put it in my grub.cfg permanently.
Since the KMS-related problem is intermittent, I hav

Please install the 0.8.0~-10ubuntu1 version of the plymouth and

No, not the same bug, but there are probably relations between them.
I've been having problems with Plymouth with and without disabling KMS
(booting with 'nomodeset') and also the other way around.
Uninstalling Plymouth gives me a usable system, but I'm pretty sure that

repository, checked the script you mentioned in #3 (it's the correct one) and
rebooted.
I saw the blue/white bars, broken up by some messages. After that I got the
