What if Plymouth started earlier with a black.png file that filled the screen preventing the flashing cursor from appearing followed by an animated Tumbleweed logo?
plymouth normally is started in the initrd already, much earlier isn't really possible... ;-)
If it isn't for you, maybe check that you have plymouth-dracut installed. And maybe check that it is actually part of the initrd. (via lsinitrd e.g.)
Perhaps this is why we don't see a flashing cursor in openSUSE 13.2. Plymouth starts with a screen slowly fading up.
How would that make a difference?
plymouth is starting up with a black screen on openSUSE 13.2 and slowly fading it in, it starts up with a not-black screen in Tumbleweed.
As soon as it starts, it is displaying something, be it black or not black...

But why do we need this? Don't you want slick clean boot up. If I want a flashing cursor block then I would set in up in the kernel option. When splash is enabled, the command doesn't say splash + text in kernel options. It's the annoying white flashing block AND the login prompt that appears just before and after plymouth. It also appears when we select shutdown from KDE gui. I'm not sure about GNOME. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
