I take it all back! :-) It seems it takes a while for the mobo's on-board video to turn on. I installed a nvidia video card and the boot splash shows. However, after installing the nvidia video driver the splash screen resolution is lower than 1920 x 1080 that I have my display set at.
So, it's working (don't know if the "work around" was ever needed), now if someone can just tell me how to adjust the splash resolution... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540801 Title: X server starts before Plymouth, or a very short time after (no or brief splash) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
