Phoronix: What's New In The Land Of Plymouth?

One of the open-source projects that hasn't been talked about in a while on Phoronix (over one year) is Red Hat's Plymouth project...

I don't get the point of this article.

I don't get the point of this article.

Pageviews get ads which support the site.

But it also confirms that Phoronix is keeping up and there really is nothing new to report.

I've been playing with plymouth a bit recently in order to make a decent boot screen. Something I've been trying to find out is where exactly it connects to libpng. The reason i ask is b/c it would be great to be able to use mngs for animation rather than the rather limited png manipulation, and mng should allow for larger and more complex animation b/c of using deltas.

my boot splash still sucks, changes resolution randomly, blinks and i see all this terminal text, even on log out, shutdown...

thx plymouth

I get that too. Is it because of nVidia drivers and them going separate ways?
