--- Comment #5 from Nikolai Zhubr
Disable plymouth(8) ... from manual page
DESCRIPTION plymouth is a graphical boot system for Linux which takes advantage of the kernel-based mode setting (KMS) available for modern graphic cards to provide a seamless, flickerfree and attractive boot screen.
beside this you should also disable the graphical mode in grub2 that is to set
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text
in /etc/default/grub and run
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
afterwards. This bug does not belong to systemd nor udev.
No plymouth installed here, and graphics in Grub was disabled of course, I should have mentioned this, sorry. Now, I have finally "solved" the problem by adding blacklist i915 into /etc/modprobe.d/99-local.conf This still allows automatic loading of i915 by X and manual loading by modprobe i915, but initially after boot text mode is retained (and this is all I want). Obviously this is not a generic solution, but I'd suggest that some reminder in the description of NO_KMS_IN_INITRD (or elsewhere) mentioning grub, plymouth and autoloading by pci_id would not hurt at least. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
