FWIW, I tried using Plymouth in Libert=C3=A9 Linux (starting it from init.d and not earlier in initramfs, though), and it was unusable =E2=80=94 too bu= ggy and unreliable with state transitions, unusable console, bad behavior when framebuffer is unavailable, etc. I didn't bother opening bugs, since a major part of that behavior was likely due to the proof-of-concept OpenRC, and other parts like unusable console were actually documented problems. --=20 Maxim Kammerer Libert=C3=A9 Linux (discussion / support: http://dee.su/liberte-contribute)
