Package: console-common
Version: 0.7.85
Severity: normal
After I installed and configured Plymouth, the splash image would display, and
then it would drop into the console, then stop and do nothing. I hit enter and
it continued. After some debugging I found the problem to be in
/etc/init.d/keymap.sh. It seems this has been a problem in the past with
splashy, as I found this section:
# Avoid messing with splashy boot
# Thanks to John Hughes and Marc Haber for suggestions
pidof splashy >/dev/null &&
mkdir -p /lib/init/rw/splashy/ &&
touch /lib/init/rw/splashy/splashy-stopped-keymap &&
exit 0
I changed "splashy" to "plymouthd" as a work-around. It's my understanding that
splashy is no longer supported in squeeze, so this section should probably be
updated.
This problem seems similar to Bug #575431, except for me it dropped to the
console rather than hang in the splash screen.
