Comment 6 for bug 499541

This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 0.8.0~-6

---------------
plymouth (0.8.0~-6) lucid; urgency=low

  * Revert change in 0.8.0~-4 that scans the buffer out fo fbcon when
    deactivating i915; this was actually wrong, we don't want to use fbcon
    for the transition, we want to use our current framebuffer instead.
    Other bugs (with the VT code) are preventing that transition from working.
  * Fix a crash on "plymouth deactivate" when no renderer is active.
    LP: #499541.
  * Fix a crash on "plymouth deactivate" when --show-splash has never
    been called.
  * Fix failure to quit on "plymouth quit" after "plymouth deactivate".

  * Remove the code that disables plymouth when init= is on the command-line,
    we don't want that.

  * debian/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/plymouth:
    - Don't check the kernel command-line; we always want plymouth running
      whether or not "splash" is present, plymouth uses that to determine
      which of the graphics or text renderers to use.
    - Start with --attach-to-session so we redirect console messages.
  * debian/plymouth.plymouth-log.upstart:
    - Once the filesystem is mounted, flush the log out.
