Thanks Daniel, the corresponding upstream commit is https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/commit/75204a251
The description indeed matches what is described on this bug 'The amdgpu driver needs up to 5 seconds to initialize / boot some AMD GPUs, which makes our 5 second timeout much too close to the actual needed time, leading to systems where sometimes the boot is fine and the next boot we fallback to a text based splash because we won the race from the GPU probe code. This commit bumps the default DeviceTimeout to 8 seconds giving us a decent marging here without making it overly long.' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838725 Title: Plymouth fails to display graphical splash screens on some machines, shows text mode dots animation instead.
