Package: plymouth-drm
Version: 0.8.3-18+b1
Severity: normal

Plymouth does not show a splash screen and does not log boot messages.

My configuration is as follows:

        /etc/initramfs-tools/modules:

                drm                                                             
                                                                                
             
                nouveau modeset=1 

        /etc/default/grub:

                [...]
                GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash"
                [...]

        /etc/plymouth:

                # Administrator customizations go in this file                  
                                                                                
             
                [Daemon]                                                        
                                                                                
             
                Theme=fade-in 

Installed themes:

        /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme --list

                details
                fade-in
                glow
                script
                solar
                spinfinity
                text


To apply the changes I ran

        /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme fade-in
        update-grub2
        update-initramfs -u
        
following instructions at

        http://wiki.debian.org/plymouth


Another important problem seems to be, that plymouth does not log its own errors

and leaves no hints as to what might have happened.


If I start plymouthd and run

        plymouth show-splash

after Xorg is running, the splash screen is displayed on the first console.
