Posted: Sat Jul 13, 2024 9:56 am Post subject: [SOLVED] plymouth --show-splash don t show anything

Hello all,

steps was done under X (enlightenment desktop and root user)

I try to install plymouth on my system, and first, want to try some themes

i've emerge plymouth

Code:

emerge --ask sys-boot/plymouth
...
[ebuild R ] sys-boot/plymouth-22.02.122-r1

I follow the step on https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Plymouth in order to choose and select a themes and just try to try the theme

Code:

plymouth-set-default-theme solar; plymouthd; plymouth --show-splash; sleep 5; killall plymouthd

but nothing show up

I've also tried the following script (found on another site)

Code:

#!/bin/bash

chk_root() {
if [ ! $(id -u) -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Must be root"
exit
fi
}

chk_root

DURATION=$1
if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then
DURATION=5
fi

plymouthd
plymouth --show-splash
for ((I=0; I<$DURATION; I++)); do
plymouth --update=test$I
sleep 1;
done
plymouth quit

But nothing show up

Further more, when following the guide and try to regenerate the initramfsm i've the following error:

Code:

# dracut --force

Do you have any hint please ?

All the step was done with root user

How do you usually install the kernel? The easiest way to create a dracut initramfs for your kernel is to enable the "dracut" flag for sys-kernel/installkernel and then re-install the kernel (make install or emerge --config gentoo-kernel(-bin)). Running dracut directly is sometimes troublesome because it will try to auto-detect where to install the generated image (if not specified explicitly) and it gets it wrong often. In your case it is trying and failing to install the initramfs in the layout for systemd-boot.

I think it is normal for plymouth to not do anything if an X session is still running, it would have to rather abruptly take over the screen otherwise which feels like it would be messy.

I've installed my kernel as stated in the Gentoo handbook : https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Kernel
Under section Distribution kernels

Code:

# cat /etc/portage/package.use/installkernel
sys-kernel/installkernel dracut
gojita ~ #

Code:

emerge --ask sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel

I will use the same command once I will have plymouth to show me something on screen ;-)

I also ran the script and performed the step on a termnal without any X session open, and same thing. Nothing happen.

It might not do anything until you reboot it with "splash quiet" on the kernel cmdline. I have never tried to "plymouth --show-splash" directly, I might be wrong, but I don't expect this to do anything from an interactive session. By the way, you don't have to re-compile the whole kernel with "emerge --ask gentoo-kernel", re-install via "emerge --config gentoo-kernel" is enough, this will save you a lot of time. _________________ OS: Gentoo 6.10.12-gentoo-dist, ~amd64, 23.0/desktop/plasma/systemd MB: MSI Z370-A PRO CPU: Intel Core i9-9900KS GPU: Intel Arc A770 16GB & Intel UHD Graphics 630 SSD: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2 TB RAM: Crucial Ballistix 32GB DDR4-2400

I Already have this line in /etc/default/grub

Quote:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

but plymouth does not show up ... still having text boot

I then get a working configuration from a previous ubuntu installation on same computer (but kernel6.5 instead of 6.6)

I put the configuration in /etc/portage/savedconfig/sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel

and recompile the kernel with emerge gentoo-kernel.

I've then run grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.conf

But when i reboot, I do not have the newer kernel

uname -a
Linux gojita 6.6.32-gentoo-dist #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat Jul 6 12:38:32 CEST ...

What is the step I forgot for the new kernel to be take into account on reboot ?

Please show us the output of 'emerge --config ...' as well as the contents of /boot.

Note that plymouth only really works on a systemd system.

By contents of /boot, do you means /efi ?

Code:

Code:

cat /etc/plymouth/plymouthd.conf
# Administrator customizations go in this file
#[Daemon]
#Theme=fade-in
[Daemon]
Theme=details
[/code

I am confused, are you booting with grub or systemd-boot?

You mentioned that you are running 'grub-mkconfig', but your sys-kernel/installkernel is configured for systemd-boot.

Kernels for grub are installed into /boot (layout=grub), kernels for systemd-boot are installed to /efi (layout=bls).

By the way, I see that you do not have the "dist-kernel" flag enabled for at least sys-kernel/linux-firmware, when using distribution kernels please ensure that this flag is enabled globally.

Hello,

Yeah ... i'm confused too :oops:

I read a little more about all of this "boot" option.
I had fist decide to go for Grub boot, but wrongly run a "systemd boot" step.

So, finally, I'm on a systemd boot (formerly known as gummiboot), I've added the "quiet spash" option in

Code:

/efi/loader/entries
# Boot Loader Specification type#1 entry
# File created by /usr/lib/kernel/install.d/90-loaderentry.install (systemd 255)
title Gentoo Linux
version 6.6.32-gentoo-dist
machine-id 76627e276356473192787dcefe8db2ca
sort-key gentoo
options dokeymap looptype=squashfs loop=/image.squashfs cdroot systemd.machine_id=76627e276356473192787dcefe8db2ca quiet splash
linux /76627e276356473192787dcefe8db2ca/6.6.32-gentoo-dist/linux
initrd /76627e276356473192787dcefe8db2ca/6.6.32-gentoo-dist/microcode-amd
initrd /76627e276356473192787dcefe8db2ca/6.6.32-gentoo-dist/initrd

And all was fine.

Thank you for your help
