Well, I don't know how you had aubergine on your screen without the theme packages installed, because the aubergine /comes from/ the Ubuntu plymouth theme packages.
Do you have the cryptsetup package installed? Is it possible that you're booting into an old kernel which has an old plymouth in the initramfs? -- plymouth: blank/unanimated screen at boot (cat /proc/fb: 0 VGA16 VGA) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541700 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
