Plymouth never starts

I've just switched to Trisquel and I'm not sure how to get plymouth working. As far as I can tell, it should function out of the box and present me with some sort of graphical display on boot, but that is not the case. All that happens on boot is that a large quantity of text scrolls past the screen too quickly to read. This text may be errors, but I can't read it. I am then given the opportunity to enter my disk encryption password, and boot continues. None of this occurs in any sort of graphical setting.
Hardware is a Libreboot Thinkpad X-60.
Let us see the content of your /etc/default/grub.
Attached is my /etc/default/grub file. I have run update-grub or update-grub2 every time I've modified it.

- Try to comment the definition of GRUB_GFXMODE:
$ sudo sed -i 's/^GRUB_GFXMODE/#&/' /etc/default/grub - Apply the change:
$ sudo update-grub - Reboot and see whether the splash screen is shown.
It didn't seem to make a difference. I've noticed that during startup when everything is scrolling very quickly, the console's text changes resolution. Could this be because KMS is not starting early enough?
Anything wrong in /var/log/boot.log that would explain why the system insists on showing you the init sequence?
And do you really have a Plymouth theme installed? "plymouth-theme-trisquel-logo" is installed by default. What is the content of /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth? What about that of /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash?
/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash contains only the line "FRAMEBUFFER=y"
/lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth contains:
[Plymouth Theme]
Name=Trisquel-logo
Description=Trisquel-logo example plugin.
ModuleName=script
[script]
ImageDir=/lib/plymouth/themes/trisquel-logo
ScriptFile=/lib/plymouth/themes/trisquel-logo/trisquel-logo.script
[script-env-vars]
example_env_var=example env var value
I've attached the output of my boot.log file. I didn't notice anything wrong in it.

Everything seems alright. Given your /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash (which is mine as well), I believe Plymouth uses the framebuffer and not KMS.
I do not understand what goes wrong. Do /lib/plymouth/themes/trisquel-logo and /lib/plymouth/themes/trisquel-logo/trisquel-logo.script exist? I guess so. I would then try to update the initramfs:
sudo update-initramfs -u
Updating initramfs did nothing. I did get the following message while running the update:
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-71-lowlatency
W: mdadm: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf defines no arrays.
That warning is shown because you do not use RAID. Nothing wrong with it.
I am running out of idea to diagnose your problem. Anyone else?
