[opensuse-factory] Leap 15 Plymouth bootsplash images only work under nouveau
Hi all, Has anyone noticed that the new Plymouth bootsplash work under nouveau only? After I installed the nvidia drivers, the three little squares reappeared in the center of the screen during boot up. The Nvidia drivers are working fine with Plymouth in openSUSE Leap 42.3. I can see Plymouth bootsplash but not in Leap 15 and Tumbleweed. Looks like nouveau provides that nvidia doesn't. Any thoughts? -- Cheers!

has been discussed, but I don't recall the result. I disable plymouth but have seen both the three ... and the splash screen using NVidia....run drivers. so I disagree that nouveau provides THIS and nvidia does not. nouveau definitely cannot provide display resolution sufficient for me to process my photographs. nvidia does. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

This has been a known issue for a long time with nvidia drivers and plymouth. It's related to how nvidia fakes kms support, if I remember rightly. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Maybe it helps to enable KMS in the driver. Not sure whether I've tried this in this context (and what the results have been). NVIDIA's README.txt ------------------- [...] NVIDIA's DRM KMS support is still considered experimental. It is disabled by default, but can be enabled on suitable kernels with the 'modeset' kernel module parameter. E.g., modprobe -r nvidia-drm ; modprobe nvidia-drm modeset=1 [...] Anybody tried with Wayland already?

NVidia was working in earlier releases? Yet it stopped working in the first quarter of 2016. Michael Chang created a patch in the last week of May 2016 for Grub2. There was a patch for 13.2, 42.2. 42.3 and Tumbleweed. It worked for me up until December 2017. Perhaps this is a kernel issue, and a grub2/dracut issue. The grub2 patch that was issued allowed me to see Plymouth when openSUSE was booted from a second drive. I was able to enable the Plymouth bootsplash by adding GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX="keep" to /etc/default/grub and then ran: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg I also ran mkinitrd to add the image to intrd. Now the problem wasn't festering in grub2 but other programs. I read that SuSE was working on adding it to the kernel but the project was abandoned. Cheers!
