I use Nvidia driver 346 and I have followed the instructions of this link How to fix plymouth (splash screen) in all Ubuntu releases! But I've only managed to show the boot splash screen but not the shutdown's as you can see in this video.
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?
