The only concern I have here is if this slows down the boot speed? Like if I "cat file" on a virtual console it will take a noticeable amount of time. ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure

I believe we don't show stuff by default any more. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/0d066dd1a4: pid1: add new mode systemd.show-status=error and use it when 'quiet' is passed systemd.show-status=error is useful for the case where people care about errors only. If people want to have a quiet boot, they most likely don't want to see all status output even if there is a delay in boot, so make "quiet" imply systemd.show-status=error instead of systemd.show-status=auto. And we specify 'quiet' by default.

Is changing the default theme from "text" to "details" an option? It is already there so there is no need to install another package and I think it is a better wall-of-text experience than removing plymouth altogether. -- Best Regards Oğuz Ersen ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure

Systemd has you covered here, you can tell it to not log any startup status or to only log errors by specifying systemd.show_status=no or systemd.show_status=auto on the kernel commandline. Note I'm not claiming there is no bug in plymouth (1) here, but I also believe that dropping plymouth completely from e.g. the server-spin is the right thing to do. And that has the nice side effect of significant lowering the priority of the plymouth bug. Which I must admit does make the chance of me actually looking into the plymouth bug a lot smaller. Regards, Hans 1) There have been a lot of tty/console code changes in the kernel recently to deal with a bunch of security issues. I would not be surprised if one of those turns out to be the root cause. This makes me wonder how hard it would be for you to try and reproduce this with the latest F34 rootfs + a kernel from when openQA did not hit this yet ? ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure

The kbd-layout indicator in plymouth (and the capslock indicator) is something which I recently added and which is only available in the graphical bgrt and spinner themes. Note that even in graphical mode plymouth relies on the console-keyboard driver / console keyboard map, because keyboard-mapping is nasty and we don't want to re-invent that wheel. We even rely on systemd to setup the keymap for us, so keymap wise nothing will change when plymouth is not in the loop. Also while on the subject, both indicators in the bgrt/spiner theme are actually not directly reflecting to the console-keyboard driver state. Since the console's kbd code has no notion of storing a keymap-name or some such. So instead plymouth just mimicks systemd's kernel cmdline and /etc/vconsole.conf parsing and gets the map which systemd should have set if everything is working correctly. In practice this works well because the biggest problem is the initrd not being regenerated after changing the keymap and this get caught this way. This does mean that is should be easy for systemd to show the keymap the same way if that is desirable. All the code to do the config parsing is already right there in systemd. It may make sense for someone to file a RFE for this. As for capslock there also is no way to query this, so instead the actual capslock-LED state is queried and that is used. > Starting from a minimal install with plymouth omitted, adding just > plymouth itself pulls in 3 packages (plymouth, plymouth-core-libs, > plymouth-scripts) with an installed size of 621K.

Plymouth, themes and console clearing: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1933378
Hey folks! So I've filed a bug recently which may need wider discussion about the resolution. The bug report is: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1933378 The problem is this. If plymouth is installed but no graphical theme is installed/configured - which is currently the case for at least Server and minimal installs - plymouth uses a 'fallback' text theme, which Hans says is under-maintained. Since around Fedora-Rawhide- 20210122.n.0, openQA has been encountering an intermittent problem where this theme does not clear properly when boot is complete and the console login is shown, it looks like this: https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/799388#step/_console_wait_login/6 It gets worse once you actually try and log in - bits of the grey background get wiped and replaced with black in ugly patterns, this both looks dumb and makes working around the bug in openQA by adding more screenshots impractical (because the pattern of the background just keeps changing). This bug does not seem to happen if a Plymouth graphical theme is installed and configured, only if the fallback text theme is used. In the bug report, we did a bit of looking into what bits of Plymouth are installed when. In comps, 'plymouth' itself is listed as 'mandatory' in @core. This seems to ultimately date back to https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/c/0dca8c2b3f04624873918e6dfef12f27bf1a6d75 by Bill, which was in response to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=801087 (the bug number in the commit is a typo). The commit claims "Add plymouth to core, to match prior releases", but it was *not* in @core in "previous releases" so far as I can tell; it may have been pulled into minimal installs via dependencies (I can check an F16 minimal install later). 'plymouth-system-theme' - which installs the default graphical theme - is in the 'base-x' group. So only package sets that include base-x will install a graphical theme for Plymouth. This includes all major desktops, but does *not* include at least Server or minimal installs (and probably some other subsets I'm not thinking of). Anything that includes @core but *not* @base-x will hit the broken configuration. Obviously one option here is just to fix the bug in Plymouth, but Hans suggested that we should fix it by not installing Plymouth in this configuration - i.e. we should only ever install plymouth and plymouth- system-theme or no plymouth at all. If you don't have plymouth installed, you get a very old-school "wall of text" boot process; if there are encrypted system partitions, you get a plain text prompt for the encryption passphrase, with no keyboard layout indicator (I'm not sure if the text theme indicates the keyboard layout either). Starting from a minimal install with plymouth omitted, adding just plymouth itself pulls in 3 packages (plymouth, plymouth-core-libs, plymouth-scripts) with an installed size of 621K. Adding plymouth- system-theme pulls in 32 packages with an installed size of 24M. So putting plymouth-system-theme in @core would substantially inflate the size of @core in terms of both number of packages and overall installed size. Removing plymouth from @core would not save a lot in terms of packages or space. So, I guess the question here is, what do we do? 1) Remove plymouth from @core 2) Add plymouth-system-theme to @core 3) Make Hans/Ray/someone fix the plymouth bug Opinions? :) Thanks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://www.happyassassin.net ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
