      In a terminal window copy+paste the following line:
      sudo update-alternatives –config default.plymouth
      Then enter the number that is shown in front of the line that contains:
      ubuntu-logo.plymouth
      This should reset the plymouth theme to the default one.

      To uninstall plymouth manager type:
      sudo apt-get remove plymouth-manager
      Now reboot your system and the problem should be fixed

      You have to use those command lines when you install a plymouth theme using terminal commands…. i prefer to install them manually. Some applications don’t seem to use those commands.
