Hello plymouth-list,
I am trying to develop a small plymouth theme that cycles through images. Is
there a way I can debug my plymouth script? I have looked at
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Plymouth, but I cannot find a
suitable method to debug scripts.
Thanks,
W. Smith

There are some tutorials here:
http://brej.org/blog/?cat=16
and a list of functions here:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Plymouth/Scripts
When testing, run plymouthd with:
"--debug --debug-file=/tmp/plymouth-debug-out"
and see if there were any warnings there.
Try showing values using Image.Text and setting a sprite to place the
generated image on the screen.
Would you like a function to print things out to the debug log? Paste
your script somewhere and ask in #plymouth on irc.freenode.net.

Thanks for the reply. Great tutorials by the way. Currently I'm using the
--debug flag with plymouthd. I would like to display the current value of a
counter (progress), I think Image.Text will do it. I'll give it a try.
Thank you.
