Comment # 21 on bug 1002875 from Neil Rickert

I have checked two Tumbleweed installations with Intel graphics, and Plymouth
is now working fine on those.

I also have Tumbleweed installed with QEMU/KVM (as a virtual machine). 
Plymouth is broken there.  I set the VM up to use an encrypted LVM.  The
plymouth screen prompts for the encryption key.  But what I type at the
keyboard is ignored.  I have to boot without "splash=silent" on the kernel
line, to get a text virtual console where I am able to provide the encryption
key.  So maybe plymouth has trouble talking to the "spice" graphics.
