Hi Fabio,

I suppose genkernel-next can do a debug or verbose log of what's

works for me.

Please provide this debug log.

@Leho can you compile dracut and plymouth with debug USE flag enabled

have crypto as well. Also what's your graphic card and which drivers are
you using for it (KMS vs. proprietary drivers vs (u)vesafb vs simple

For reference I test with Intel KMS, no FB since KMS provides fb as

I run dracut off git checkout, although recent versions I guess are
stable enough with systemd to be run off portage.

E7440 laptop, standard Intel Haswell gfx. Regular KMS and no other magic
involved. Kernel is 3.15.8, fresh off the stove.

Thank you Fabio I CCed to the bug if a solution comes up I'll look for a
backport or version bump.

@Leho about the comment you posted on the freedesktop bugzilla: "Still
doesn't work :/" is not going to help Ray to solve the problem. Please
post debug logs and information about you setup on the freedesktop
bugzilla or just avoid posting useless comments, thanks.

True, I didn't post debug logs. They were too difficult to obtain with
the way the bug manifests itself (output just stops, with no keyboard
controls available) and I don't have the time resource available right
now to go deeper into it. When there's a choice between giving something
or nothing at all, life has long proven giving even a small output piece
has a higher % change of generating success than just sitting quietly in
the corner.

I'm sure you know what you're doing and so do I, so I'd be happy to
leave this topic at that. If all the smart people involved aren't
already able to figure the whole thing out soon, I'll probably be able
to post my debug logs within the next week. Not being lazy or
uncooperative at all, it's simply that paying customers need a lot
attention.

No useless is not subjective at all. You added no information to the bug
to be solved, and that's ok don't get me wrong. If you don't have time
to post debug logs, fine. But than why the ":/"? This just makes it
looking like a provocation to me, which lead me to the "useless"
conclusion.

Anyway yes, let's leave the topic there.

I got quite the opposite impression to be honest. Yes it is messy as
hell, since it is 100% undocumented and likely change from release to
release, but with dracut I can debug to file with plymouth.debug. This
was quite long time ago, so take my words with a grain of salt, but I'm
100% sure I got debug output to file with plymouth 0.9.0. You can also
change the file location with plymouth.debug=file:<path>. It is all in
src/main.c in case you need to work on it in the future for genkernel-
next.

It is a complex bug involving udev (in the intramfs) and the plymouth

There are a couple of patches/fixes but none of them works properly
actually (for me at least)...

The plymouth-9999 has some of the patches incorporated but it doesn't
work too at present.

Here is a thread that discusses one of the problems (at least mine) -
the new ply seat handling in plymouth...

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/plymouth/2014-June/000767.html

For reference my system is:

@PhobosK seems the seat tag is missing from your fb0 hence plymouth ignores it. 
Quoting (and trimming) your log:
create_seats_for_subsystem:found device 
/sys/devices/platform/uvesafb.0/graphics/fb0
create_seats_for_subsystem:device is initialized
create_seats_for_subsystem:device doesn't have a seat tag

So it is pretty normal you see no splash. Can you unpack your initramfs
and double check the seats rules are included? In the case of dracut
that was a bug and it has been fixed. Are you currently using dracut or
genkernel to generate the initramfs?

To me, at least about your case (which seems different from what others
reported on this bug), is not a plymouth bug. Something is going wrong
in the initramfs and th device is not tagged as a seat.

Yeah I know why my plymouth is not working (the seat problem) :)

Others like @Alexander seem to have a problem with not initialized devices etc 
etc... 
Its a complex problem involving udev/systemd and plymouth code itself, so 
debugging and fixing is very time consuming....

As a whole one of the important and leading problems is the initrd's
created...

genkernel-next-60
-----------------
Doesn't include any seat udev rules in initramfs. I added them manually with 
everything needed but still plymouth 0.9.0 (and git master 9999) got problems 
with the console input and other problems with seat tagging again. I applied 
some patches gotten from Ubuntu (http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/plymouth) 
like 007-udev-seat-tag, ubuntu-seat-terminal-may-be-null etc (one by one 
testing with every 0.9.0 and git version), but every of these patches resolved 
one problem and brought another one :(

dracut-040-r3
-------------
As for the dracut I tested 040-r3 version but it lacks support for uvesafb's 
user helper v86d, and though I managed to include it in dracut's initramfs, I 
couldn't manage to add statically to the img file the nodes /dev/zero, /dev/mem 
and /dev/tty (needed by the helper to run very early in boot - before any udev 
are settled), so I get a frozen system immediately after boot... That is why I 
cannot tell if dracut works with plymouth BUT still it is not the gentoo way of 
creating initramfs img, so plymouth in portage cannot rely on using/working 
only with dracut....

Since all these tests consume a lot of time I removed dracut and
reverted back to plymouth-0.8.8-r5 and now everything is fine...


BTW genkernel-next lacks support for uvesafb too, so I tweaked some of the 
source to have it...

Hi All, 
I tried to include seat rules in genkernel and suddenly the splash screen 
started to work (at startup, still problems on exit)

Basically the system has:
sys-kernel/genkernel-next-60
sys-boot/plymouth-0.9.0
sys-apps/systemd-218-r2

(intel graphic card)

I tweaked 
/usr/share/genkernel/gen_initramfs.sh

adding the rule for seats, that is:


    udev_maybe_files="                                                          
        ${udev_dir}/rules.d/40-gentoo.rules                                     
        ${udev_dir}/rules.d/99-systemd.rules                                    
        ${udev_dir}/rules.d/71-seat.rules                                       
        /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf                                          
        /lib/systemd/network/99-default.link                                    
    "

(71-seat.rules)

and now plymouth-0.9.0 behaves like 0.8.8-r5 (it shows startup screen at
least, the shutdown is still missing but this probably is another issue,
dunno.

If needed, I can provide other details and debug logs, just let me know.

Thanks.

Ok since the original reporter confirmed adding the seat rules to the
initramfs generated with genkernel-next fixes the problem I'm assigning
this bug to the genkernel-next maintainer.

Not really sure about this. According to this thread, the problem lies more 
into genkernel-next than in plymouth, and looking at genkernel-next github repo 
i see no changes applied.
Does anyone has a prior not working setup fixed by plymouth-0.9.2?
I will be able to test this only later...
If genkernel-next still needs to be fixed like in previuos comments, I can 
perform a pull request, just let me know.

Anyway, I'll try with plymouth 0.9.2 in a short while, it will be great
to find it fixed my issue :)

I checked today with sys-boot/plymouth-0.9.2, sys-apps/systemd-219_p112,  
sys-kernel/genkernel-next-63 (today's update) still 71-seat.rules is missing in 
genkernel script, and the outcome of generated initramfs is same as it was 
before no plymouth on boot, restart or shutdown. 
After applying a fix from commment #c16, I have both integrated intel gfx and 
pci-e nvidia (using separate kernels to boot using different gfx driver) I boot 
the system with i915 Intel, nouveau and proprietary nvidia (if I'm correct the 
last one is using vesa for showing plymouth instead of kms)  with the fix 
plymouth is showing on boot, but not at shutdown and restart. I also noticed 
that with proprietary nvidia i'm totaly unable to provide password for 
encryptyd volumes which makes plymouth unusable to boot the system, on kms 
drivers providing passwords via plymouth for encrypted volumes is working nice.
I just wonder why it's working well for some of you?

Hi,

with 71-seat.rules included as in comment #16 the solar splash appears
on my system (VirtualBox and genkernel-next-63) too, but - despite
loglevel=3 and quiet - I get

* a blinking cursor
* random: nonblocking pool is initialized
* vboxguest kernel module messages

than most of the screens gets blacked out. The sun at the right lower
border remains, some white dots (stars?) are splattered on the black
area and the progress bar in the middle continues to run.

I tried a lot of things to get the kernel silent completely but to no
avail.

Finally I get a correct agetty with /etc/issue displayed and all of the
splash disappeared as it should be. I don't boot into the
graphical.target, since I mostly work in a ssh session from my host.

BTW: there seems no more commits on genekernel-next's Github repo :-O

This is another bug, unrelated to the current one. In your case it looks
like either the vbox framebuffer driver is going mad or plymouth is very
confused when dealing with it.

My kernel is not silent as well when booting, and I keep it at is on
purpose. Still I can't see those messages if I have plymouth enabled, I
have to unhide them. You don't need a silent kernel to have the splash
screen. You have something else wrong happening and, by accident, you
can see under the splash screen. I advise you to get in touch with
plymouth upstream and possibly also with vbox devs.

I just spend over a day hunting down the problem of the splash not
showing up, only to find that adding the single line with th seat.rules
solves it (for me). This is now broken for over a year, if this isn't
conidered a proper fix, could we at least get a ewarn/einfo of some sort
to tell people about this?

Hi, can you elaborate a bit further on this fix? I'm not using dracut.
Many thanks!

I just created the file /lib/udev/rules.d/71-seat.rules and added the

LABEL="seat_end"

And reran genkernel-next. It is now working with OpenRC.

I just cut out the first part of the systemd 71-seat.rules file, it
might be possible to slim it down to just the fb line.
