I've just updated F19 and after reboot I do not get the usual kdm login screen. The graphic screen with the F stays there forever.
I can login in text mode and run 'startx' and I get to the normal KDE session.
Looking at the logs I only noticed [FAILED] Wait for Plymouh Boot Screen to quit
and in /var/log/messages
there is something about Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth --ping -> 0 Sep 21 15:24:35 localhost kdm[335]: plymouth is running ...

add the following params to the kernel line
rd.plymouth=0 plymouth.enable=0
somewhere at start of the boot process you need to press a key or whatever to see the grub-menu at all because "smart" people decided it is more beautiful to hide basic things from users
