Ubuntu 13.04: Quick Fix Plymouth (Splash Screen)
Channel: midfingr
Date: 2013-08-22

If you've lost the splash screen in Ubuntu after installing proprietary drivers; i.e. AMD or Nvidia, there's a script to fix this (if needed).
Type the following into a terminal. Follow the on screen instructions:

cd
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/121675171/fixplymouth
chmod +x fixplymouth
./fixplymouth
