[opensuse-factory] Anybody working on plymouth integration for 12.2?
Hey there, I'm wondering if anybody is working on integrating plymouth for 12.2? If yes, is help needed? I was thinking that "someone" might be doing that, but if everybody believes the same thing, then nobody is this "someone" ;-) Cheers, Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I was asking around at Fosdem to find that someone, but with the today chat, I fear we just have no-one :-( Copy and paste about the discussion on irc today. [10:12] <tigerfoot> ping tittiatcoke, at fosdem, I've learned you are (or not) the plymouth integrator, can you confirm this fcrozat & vuntz are looking about you, also artwork team (mostly Ilmehtar) [10:12] <tittiatcoke> tigerfoot: Hi :-) [10:13] <tigerfoot> tittiatcoke: yeah Hi, sorry long ping :D [10:13] <tittiatcoke> Euh. I am definitely not. At least I am not aware that I am the integrator. Ok. I have a package in my home directory, am building systemd with plymouth control and I have been asking around with regards to the jump from plymouth to KDM. But that is it :-) [10:14] <tigerfoot> okay, so the fear of vuntz about someone is noone, is justified :D [10:14] <tigerfoot> tittiatcoke: how hard was the maintenance of it ? [10:16] <tittiatcoke> tigerfoot: Yup. Well plymouth itself is fine. I grabbed the package from somewhere and that was it :-). Systemd just requires a small change in it's spec-file to enable plymouth support. But then the fun starts with KDM. You require a patch (which I grabbed from Fedora) which should have it running on tty1, but this somehow is not really working with us and I haven't found out yet what or where it goes wrong [10:17] <tigerfoot> tittiatcoke: okay, I copy paste those lines to the factory-ml ,, fcrozat, vuntz will not help us (gnome) but I was thinking that plymouth path for kdm was already upstream ... [10:18] <tigerfoot> which was the most annoying trouble in the previous attempt in 2010 [10:19] <tittiatcoke> tigerfoot: Nope. Not for this specific support it seems. But I am now in the situation where my KDE session constantly tries to jump to tty1 while it is active. I get then errors in the Xorg.0.log file that indicates that it couldn't swith the session to tty1. So with the latest changes something must have happened (either in systemd, Xorg or in the latest KDE master ) [10:19] <tigerfoot> tittiatcoke: in which repo are you building it ? [10:20] <tittiatcoke> home:tittiatcoke (that is at least where plymouth and systemd are) [10:21] <tittiatcoke> einar77: with jumping to tty1 ? [10:22] <einar77> tittiatcoke: these are the (optional) patches one can apply to get integration [10:22] <einar77> http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kd/kdebase-workspace-plymouth/kdebase-work... [10:22] <einar77> when my eee ran on Arch Linux I used these [10:22] <einar77> some are unrelated [10:22] <einar77> (effects etc.) [10:23] <tittiatcoke> einar77: Ok :-) I will have a look at that. [10:23] <einar77> but can you check whether they are the fedora patches or there's something more? [10:23] <tittiatcoke> einar77: I will. [10:23] <einar77> I know it used to run OK [10:23] <tittiatcoke> :-) [10:23] <einar77> tittiatcoke: btw with regards to the shutdown issue [10:23] <tigerfoot> cool ... if we get something ... [10:23] <einar77> did you try without plymouth? [10:24] <tittiatcoke> einar77: Nope :-) [10:24] <einar77> I have a hunch plymouth is not terminating correctly [10:24] <tittiatcoke> einar77: Maybe [10:26] <einar77> I'll reboot to test a few things and report back [10:27] <tittiatcoke> einar77: Ok.

Time to team up :D
Résumé of this morning GDM is fixed thanks Vincent Raymond will retry the build of plymouth and test kdm & gdm with new patches. Then our next steps : Create a meta bug for plymouth in 12.2 (same we've done for systemd) Glue build, bugzilla, openfate, wiki (forums?) together If no bugs -> SR plymouth to factory (get it in for M2) If bugs -> working with Frédéric to get fixes in systemd Ask artwork team to build the 12.2 branding Start fixing other packages (mostly suspend without splashy) -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Ambassador GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi Bruno, As that it seems that nobody else stand up to take an active role for Plymouth, I will take this role unless somebody else stands up :-) . As an initial update.

Based on the fixes from this morning, we currently have only two issues remaining that prevents a smooth boot experience. These are two glitches. One is directly after the kernel startup up and the second one is just before it starts GDM or KDM.
Then our next steps : Create a meta bug for plymouth in 12.2 (same we've done for systemd) I have create bug report bnc#
If bugs -> working with Frédéric to get fixes in systemd Tomorrow I will try to talk to Frédéric to see how we can trace where those glitches are coming from.

Thanks so much Raymond to (re)start this long awaited feature I've commented the fate, and the bug to cross link Can you (if you want to) take the fate as developer so you can add a target (12.2?) -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Ambassador GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
