Title:
  Plymouth screen refresh is bad when Live USB is started in UEFI mode

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  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.
