2011-10-11 02:54:05 Steve Langasek description When booting the plymouth splash screen is shown for a second and then the screen goes blank. I have an encrypted the root partition so this makes it a bit difficult to input the password. Entering the password after some time when the screen is blank works fine though. Switching the VT with ctrl+F6, ctrl+F7 shows the plymouth password promt again but it's very distorted.
