Ubiquity-DM not displayed

[Fabio Marconi]

Hallo
Are days that starting regularry from an usb+persistence (the behavior is the same from a DVD), it don't show plymouth and jump directly into the live session without display the window of Ubiquity-DM asking if I want to try or install.
Thanks
Fabio

Well, for just one time in hundreds of tests, I've seen the plymouth (in low resolution graphic) and then the ubiquity-DM window.
Is it a race ?

Fabio I was testing the daily Ubuntu Desktop amd64 and encountered what I believe is the same as this bug. Anyway, I tried with a persistent USB went directly into the Ubunut scroll and then into a dead dark screen no cursor. I then tried a USB created with the dd command and it booted in the same manner. Then, I typed "s" right after my bios screen and I got the selections to choose language and try or install.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Xubuntu Desktop amd64 has the same issue, and typing "s" after bios screen works as well. Lubuntu does not seem to have the issue.
