[Bug 1234546] [NEW] Plymouth screen refresh is bad when Live USB is started in UEFI mode

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Test computer : Dell XPS 13 L322x with Intel Graphics HD4000.

I burnt a Live Ubuntu Gnome 13.10 USB, first with the Beta 1, and with
the 2013-09-30 daily image. This USB key has been created with Rufus
under Windows and is compliant for both UEFI and Bios mode.

If I boot on the key in Bios mode, no problem, I see the first screen in
text mode (Install, test only...). After having chosen "test only", I
see the Gnome footprint and everything runs.

If I boot the key in UEFI mode (SecureBoot is disabled), I see the first
screen. After having chosen "test only", plymouth starts but the screen
refresh frequency is bad, so I have many footprints on the screen, etc.

Everything seems to run fine also, except this screen refresh frequency.
