Bug Description
I get grub menu the tty messages regarding fsck and ureadahead then black screen with spinning cursor, then gdm.
No plymouth.
The only errors on the system are in syslog.
lucid-testing init: plymouth main process (348) terminated with status 1
lucid-testing init: plymouth pre-stop process (1695) terminated with status 2
There are no other plymouth errors in any other log.
I can test plymouth using this.
sudo plymouthd
then
sudo plymouth --show-splash
I get two black boxes with the ubuntu logo, so it must not be running at boot properly.
However on shutdown it shows plymouth being killed.

Comment from Scott James Remnant on bug #495188:
"Also note that you would not expect a graphical screen on NVIDIA
hardware at this point, since the Kernel pieces (the nouveau driver)
have not yet been landed."
