package: plymouth version: 0.8.3-9.1 severity: serious # makes the package unusable or mostly so
Hi,
on a current squeeze system (which was upgraded from lenny half a year ago) I
purged desktop-base from lenny and then installed desktop-base 6.0.2 from
sid. the plymouth package was installed at that time already.
the grub2 splashscreen was updated to space fun, the gdm login not. space fun
is also not available in the gdm configuration gui. plymouth was also not
activated.
This I filed as #606125.
Then I set up plymouth following the steps
in /usr/share/doc/plymouth/README.Debian, first with enabling KMS, then
without. The result was in both cases the same: on boot, I had to press enter
3 times, for each runlevel change (S,2,5). As this is hardly usable, I've
removed plymouth again, and I got a boot without having to press enter...
Boot options are "quiet splash".
