Hi Chris,

i need vacation :)
I have been testing almost the whole day but  i cannot seem to get it to work 
as it should.

Because of the hybrid graphics the intel device i915 driver gets initialized 
first and is the fb0 device. When plymouth starts it tries to open the fb0 
device and loads the i915 driver.
I then have to exit plymouth using escape to get the console where i have to 
enter the password for the encrypted disk.

The thing is that it is not consistently because i also have a few times
(less then i915 as first) during startup the radeon driver wins and gets
fb0 and then my plymouth works perfectly.

When starting the system with i915.disable=1 plymouth always works.

So do you have other ideas howto fix this?
I think plymouth should be able to detect if fb0 has a connected display or 
else try the other framebuffer device.
