Hi there,
After the recent mess with plymouth, I wonder if it is still needed in Tumbleweed.
Plymouth is just the graphical frontend for the boot screen. It's possible to build a system without plymouth, but that would make a bad impression to users.
Some users appreciate the beauty of a verbose kernel booting, and consider the graphical ugly.
I don't consider it ugly, but I rather see se startup lines verbosity than a graphical frontend or a splash screen. Then again, the people on this list are most likely not the average-joe's of laptop users. Maybe just making that choice easier and simpler when installing a new OS or doing major updates. -- H.Merijn Brand https://tux.nl Perl Monger http://amsterdam.pm.org/ using perl5.00307 .. 5.37 porting perl5 on HP-UX, AIX, and Linux https://tux.nl/email.html http://qa.perl.org https://www.test-smoke.org
