File Content: README.Debian plymouth for Debian ------------------- Plymouth supports both KMS (kernel mode setting) and standard console output. For standard console support the plymouth-x11 package has to be installed. The following steps are required in order to enable the plymouth bootsplash: * In case the KMS backend should be used and KMS is not yet enabled on your system, add the following lines to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules: # for KMS with Intel graphic cards i915 modeset=1 # for KMS with NVIDIA graphic cards nouveau modeset=1 # for KMS with AMD (ATI) graphic cards radeon modeset=1 Remember to afterwards rebuild the initrd with 'update-initramfs -u' as root. * Install plymouth and optionally the plymouth-themes packages. * Add 'splash' as boot parameter in your bootloader configuration. * Optionally switch to a different theme by running update-alternative --config default.plymouth (and rebuilding the initrd again). -- Daniel Baumann <mail@daniel-baumann.ch> Mon, 06 Sep 2010 12:11:20 +0200 Submit
