Package: plymouth Version: 0.8.3-3 Severity: normal
I encountered the same bug. I had a closer look, and the cause is dependency based and parallel booting. The plymouth initscript is called way to early in rc2. The following change in the init script did the trick: move "gdm kdm xdm" from "X-Start-Before" to "Should-Start". Now plymouth exits just before my kdm comes up. Haven't tried gdm. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages plymouth depends on: ii initramfs-tools 0.96.1 tools for generating an initramfs ii libc6 2.11.1-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdrm-intel1 2.4.18-5 Userspace interface to intel-speci ii libdrm-nouveau1 2.4.18-5 Userspace interface to nouveau-spe ii libdrm-radeon1 2.4.18-5 Userspace interface to radeon-spec ii libdrm2 2.4.18-5 Userspace interface to kernel DRM ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.43-1 PNG library - runtime Versions of packages plymouth recommends: ii plymouth-themes-all 0.8.3-3 Graphical Boot Animation and Logge Versions of packages plymouth suggests: pn gdm <none> (no description available) -- Configuration Files: /etc/init.d/plymouth changed [not included] /etc/plymouth/plymouthd.conf changed [not included] -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
