[systemd-devel] Question about plymouth-quit.service

2011-10-10 Thread cee1
Hi all,

It seems plymouth-quit.service hasn't ever been activated on my Fedora15:
systemctl status plymouth-quit.service
plymouth-quit.service - Terminate Plymouth Boot Screen
  Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/plymouth-quit.service)
  Active: inactive (dead)
  CGroup: name=systemd:/system/plymouth-quit.service


Then, how does it notify plymouth boot splash to quit?

Also I noticed prefdm.service has relations with plymouth-quit.service:
Conflicts=plymouth-quit.service
After=plymouth-quit.service
What does that mean?

gdm can do that internally.

It means that plymouth-quit.service is removed from the initial
transaction if gdm is pulled in since gdm handles that internally and
does not need plymouth-quit.service for that.

THis is what makes the smooth fading between plymouth and gdm work.
