The regression in o:F and SLES will be: semitranslucent background picture on tty1 when text is shown is gone. I have not told your product managers yet, but bootsplash (the .rpm and the implementation) is important for branding.
Technically seen, keeping the background picture on tty1 while showing bootsplash with plymouth shouldn't be too hard. But they are exclusive currently in the package level, unfortunately.
I guess the better approach would be to split off from bootsplash the functionality that creates this background picture on tty1 and then package it within the branding packages ? Or we can make it even part of plymouth.
From what I understand of the way KMS is handled, it would require plymouth (or something) to keep running or at least, keep a FD open (and I'm not sure how the tty would react).
I'm also not strongly convinced branding tty is THAT important.
Why plymouth is convincing, then? :)
because it is maintained, cross-distro and allow flicker-free transition to X. When I was speaking of branding tty, I was of course speaking of the virtual console, once the boot is finished. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat@suse.com> SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
