A few posts ago I mentioned that I had the Kubuntu boot and shutdown screen.  Well,  I fixed it with some information provided by forestpiskie

Seems plymouth had it settings wrong.  All I had to do was enter the following command in terminal:

sudo update-alternatives –config default.plymouth

Then I selected the Ubuntu option (in my case it was option 2).  Pretty simple fix to a really annoying problem

Thanks again forestpiskie.
