** Summary changed:

- usplash can't display fsck progress
+ no visible indication that a long-running fsck is taking place in background

** Description changed:

  If a filesystem check is forced on bootup, usplash will drop out of
  graphical mode and drop to a text mode. This is not very friendly for
  first time users.
+ 
+ Usplash should instead display a visible indication that a Disk Check is
+ being performed, and use the progress information extracted from fsck
+ itself.  Currently this information is provided on a filehandle from the
+ low-level fsck process, but the high-level fsck process does not pass
+ status information through (beyond displaying a text status-bar), or
+ send the status to usplash.
+ 
+ The front-end fsck should be modified so that the status information is
+ passed to a 'usplash_write' command and the currently active progress
+ bar be hijacked  or borrowed.
