I have the fixed plymouth version installed, but it don't fixes the bug for me.

dpkg -s plymouth

I have the same error message during boot-process (reported in duplicate of this bug - #620918). After the error message the system stops to work. The system comes up, if I boot without an external HDMI monitor connected. Besides this I'm able to boot with the external monitor if I do the following:

- Press "E" in GRUB startup page
- Delete "quiet splash" and add option "noplymouth" at the end of the line
- Boot with that option, pressing "Strg+X"

@Lorenzo: Please test the steps above. If you can boot into the system perform a complete software update. You should then have the fixed plymouth package 0.8.2-2ubuntu5.1. Are you able to boot without the steps above afterwards?
