Hello, I'm afraid "don't like", "don't use", or "don't see the usefulness" is different from releasing broken stuff.
Actually, choice among some options have been suggested: 1. Fix plymouth 2. Make text boot as default For #1 there's been suggestion to downgrade plymouth 0.9 > 0.8. Sadly it seems nobody believed it deserved at least a try, even if some tests proved that plymouth 0.8 makes the plymouth screen play correctly. Esc key would work too (currently we can't: Esc _doesn't_ work, we can't enjoy the nice scroll of [OK]s !) Please see https://issues.openmandriva.org/show_bug.cgi?id=874#c8 You may want to think over that plymouth is one of the first things that users and reviewers will see when they will test the distro. A so flashy bug will bring to mind neglect and carelessness. Imho, if nobody is able to fix it, or doesn't have the time, or doesn't care, then at least let's try not go towards a bad impression granted. Imho2, it doesn't make much sense to go ahead with development (2015 and over) if we keep carrying on unsolved bugs. 2014-09-05 13:23 GMT+02:00 João Azevedo Patrício <[email protected]>: > Em 05-09-2014 12:21, Luca Pedrielli escreveu: >> >> you can suggest in the release notes that to workaround plymouth issue >> usersmust buy a ssd disk. :) >> >> I still think that for a bugfix release, bugs have to be fixed. >> QA team? are you there? >> you have to fight for a bug free release. >> >> Best, Luca. >> >> >> 2014-09-05 12:38 GMT+02:00 Tomasz Paweł Gajc <[email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]>>: >> >> Works fine for me.
