It's very strange. How can I force plymouth shown in the 1024x768 resolution at shut-down because it looks like in my case the plymouth at shut-down uses some unknown resolution or frame buffer which is different from boot-up's and can not be recognized by the LCD? Please help!
I use Nvidia driver 346 and I have followed the instruction of this link How to fix splash screen in all Ubuntu releases! Bui I've only managed to show the boot splash screen but not the shut-down's as you can see in this video. https://www.youtube.com/embed/nD9OVbnp28g
I guess it's probably due to that there is no D-sub socket on the video card and I have to use the HDVI to D-sub adaptor which made Ubuntu unable to detect it. Please help me with the issue. Thanks in advance. This is what I did:
sudo apt-get install v86d
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768x32
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
echo FRAMEBUFFER=y | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-initramfs -u
sudo update-grub2
There is boot-up splash screen, but no shut-down splash. How can I make shut-down splash work?
