Plymouth splash has weird (low) colors on startup but normal colors on shutdown

[tropicalfish]

Hello!

My Plymouth splash screen has weird colors on startup, but when I shut down, the colors are normal.

I've searched around but only found fixes for low resolution, which I've set for 1024x768 (instead of my monitor's 1280x1024 in case I ever need to use my computer on a different lower res monitor).

Pics: (pardon the darkness, don't have an editor installed yet)

Startup (weird colors): Click -> http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r...7/DSC_4320.jpg

Shutdown (normal colors): Click -> http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r...7/DSC_4318.jpg

EDIT: I forgot to add that it happens on other splash screens. The Ubuntu Studio splash has a green box around/behind the "ubuntu studio" text, and the logo is a cyan (255-blue 255-green) color.

Bump...

try:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure plymouth

[tropicalfish]

Nope, didn't fix it


EDIT: In fact, that has increased the time that a black screen appears and reduced plymouth to only a quick "blink" on startup.
