Hi,
>>> I have F12-rc4 installed on both baremetal and as qemu-kvm guests.
>>>
>>> During bootup on the baremetal systems, I get a gui with a large
>>> light-blue screen and a "balloon" which slowly fills and the turns into a
>>> stylized "f" before displaying thr GDM login screen.
>>>
>>> During bootup on the qemu-kvm guests, I get a blue/white bar working its
>>> way across the bottom of the screen until it turns into the gdm login
>>> screen.
>>>
>>> On shutdown for the qemu-kvm guests, I get a black screen with white text
>>> in the center saying "shutdown in progress" or words to that effect.
>>>
>>> On shutdown on the baremetal systems, I get a black scrren with a cursor
>>> in the upper left corner.
>>>
>>> At one point during the F12 development process, I did get a shutdown
>>> screen on at least one baremetal system which looked a bit like the
>>> bootup screen.
>>>
>>> What should I be seeing?  Is there a bug here?

I've seen a couple that I should probably consolidate, but this is one:
