Note to others! The conf file goes in /etc/**init** not init.d, which I'm used to typing.

The provided conf file did not work, I did reinstalls of all plymouth, xorg and nvidia packages, and rebooted several times.

No ubuntu logo. I saw a blue and white bar, which after using the new conf didn't jumble as it has earlier, it was a single line. (Previously it would spread out over other lines with error messages about ureadahead). Also a fsck warning right after pressing the grub menu option has gone.

I am using BINARY driver (nvidia-current, no idea what's going on with the packages, so I installed this one, and configured with nvidia-settings).

I always get the freeze, the provided .conf slightly improves the boot process, but it's no worse than it was.
