Goodbye Plymouth ??

Is this the beginning of the end to the numerous Plymouth woes that frequent these forums? :wink:

SUSE Has Been Working On An In-Kernel Boot Splash Screen For Linux

Cool! I hate Plymouth.

Quoting the link: “they hope this new system will work earlier in the boot process and also be more reliable.”

That would be welcome – particularly the “more reliable” part.

Hmmm. Looking forward to that … I think.:\

Any info when it will be done? Or not?

You can remove the plymouth packages yourself and lock them with zypper to avoid reinstall. Gone.
