no splash at boot

[cement_head]

On 12.04; no plymouth splash at boot - only on shutdown. Using nVIDIA; applied the manual nomodeset fix that worked in 10.04, 10.10.

Still no love.

Same here..."manual nomodeset fix" and other minor workarounds didn't helped.....with previous nvidia driver e/o kernel (I can't be sure which of them exactly..) on the same 12.04 the nomodeset worked.....
Now splashscreen only on shutdown/reboot...
Grub menu changes resolution "as it should"....but noway to let splashscreen appear at any supported resolution....

Ubuntu 12.04 64bit
Kernel 3.2.0-26-generic
nvidia-current V. 302.17-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1 (XSwat repos..)

Just to confirm this bug.
