Re-enable graphical boot in Fedora 11, switch between Plymouth themes
Hey there. Installed F11 preview, really like it. Intel 965GM graphics card, by the way. When I first set it up, I was delighted to find that plymouth and the new graphical boot splash, Compiz, and redirected direct rendering all work perfectly. I was very glad that at least for my card model, graphics are doing okay. However, I installed some system updates -- and a new kernel. For the heck of it, I also installed one or two other Plymouth themes, like the Solar theme. When I did, I no longer get the graphical boot on startup. Kernel modesetting still works, because even though I get the text-mode boot, it's a very sharp, high-res text mode boot. How can I get the graphical splashes back? When I ran grub with my old kernel, it used the graphical splash just fine. But when I compare the lines of the original kernel and the update kernel in grub.conf, they look exactly the same to me (with the rhgb and quiet options), so I'm not sure why I'm not getting the splash on my new kernel. And, by the by...how exactly do you switch between Plymouth themes when you have more than one installed? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

That's awesome, thanks. So run those commands and that should do it. By doing a find / * | grep plymouth I found the plymouth README in /usr/share/doc/plymouth, and it also turned up a list of my themes in /usr/share/plymouth/themes. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
