Hi,

I didn't care in the past for the missing plymouth boot screen on all of my Tumbleweed clients, but lately I installed a new notebook with an encrpyted root partition. Now I'd like to see the splash screen and escpecially the graphical password prompt for the encrypted root partition. I followed a lot of hints from the internet, but didn't succeed - no boot splash at all. I get a splash screen during shutdown now, though.

What exactly do you see during boot? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org

What did I do:

- reinstalled all plymouth packages - modfied plymouthd.conf to contain ShowDelay=0 - modified default/grub to contain "splash=silent quiet" (and various other combinations) - ran plymouth-set-default-theme -R <theme> - ran grub2-mkconfig after every change - ran mkinitrd after every change

This is a Tumbleweed installation - with all the latest snapshots. The machine is a DELL XPS 13 9370 using the i915 graphics module.

So its an intel graphic, which should not be am issue in general. If you run journalctl -xb | grep plymouth what is the output? On my machine, with latest TW and Plymouth working, it looks like this: -- Subject: Unit plymouth-start.service has begun start-up -- Unit plymouth-start.service has begun starting up.
