After another partition check without progress indicator (yesterday, up- to-date system) and my experiences from bug #1170421, I did some testing with the xubuntu logo theme.
With the xubuntu logo theme, the usual progress indicator actually *is* displayed: Laufwerke werden auf Fehler überprüft. Dies kann einige Minuten dauern »C« drücken, um alle laufenden Überprüfungen abzubrechen Routine disk drive check So this seems to be a problem with the kubuntu logo theme. Please see bug #1170421 for some testing of text display with several plymouth themes on a second laptop (Samsung R55). Both on the NC10 (this laptop) and the R55, the "Remove media" message on live system shutdown was (at that time at least) not displayed - I assume these two cases of missing text are occuring due to the same underlying bug. If that's the case (and the testing method in bug #1170421 is correct), the missing progress indicator could also affect several other themes (edubuntu, lubuntu, ubuntu). Package versions: plymouth-theme-kubuntu-logo: 1:13.04ubuntu13 plymouth-theme-xubuntu-logo: 13.04.4 plymouth-label: 0.8.8-0ubuntu6.1 plymouth: 0.8.8-0ubuntu6.1 Steps to reproduce (apart from the first, unplanned reboot): $ sudo apt-get install plymouth-theme-xubuntu-logo $ sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth # "update-alternatives: /lib/plymouth/themes/xubuntu-logo/xubuntu-logo.plymouth # wird verwendet, um /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth (default.plymouth) im # manueller Modus bereitzustellen" $ sudo touch /forcefsck # reboot - forgot update-initramfs, therefore: kubuntu logo displayed, no checking progress indicator displayed $ sudo update-initramfs -u $ sudo touch /forcefsck # reboot - xubuntu logo displayed, checking progress indicator displayed $ sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth # "update-alternatives: /lib/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/kubuntu-logo.plymouth # wird verwendet, um /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth (default.plymouth) im # Auto-Modus bereitzustellen" $ sudo update-initramfs -u $ sudo touch /forcefsck # reboot - kubuntu logo displayed, no checking progress indicator displayed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173320 Title: No progress indicator or other message during hard disk drive partition check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1173320/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
