[Bug 1018907] Re: plymouth in quantal on arm does only boot with black screen
At the attached patch I included a patch already available at upstream, that adds a new generic driver for the drm renderer plugin. This generic driver is supposed to work on radeon, nouveau and omap, and any other generic use case using the drm driver. As the plymouth package implies at a bunch of ubuntu specific changes, I decided to just backport this patch instead of rebasing it on top of 0.8.5.1. I also had to include another fix related with the new libdrm package (2.4.38), which changes the old nouveau library to libdrm_nouveau1, otherwise the nouveau plugin would be linked with the wrong libdrm nouveau implementation. And, as a side effect, I had to update the autoreconf.patch, making the debdiff quite large, but due differences on using a newer autoconf/automake than the one previously used when the patch was previously updated. Tested on Pandaboard and I can now see the splash screen during boot. Will attach plymouth.log as well. ** Patch added: debdiff with the new generic driver for drm renderer plugin https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1018907/+attachment/3263428/+files/plymouth_0.8.4-0ubuntu2.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018907 Title: plymouth in quantal on arm does only boot with black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1018907/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 0.8.4-0ubuntu2 --- plymouth (0.8.4-0ubuntu2) quantal; urgency=low * debian/patches/upstream-add-generic-driver-to-drm-renderer-plugin.patch: - Add the generic driver to the drm render plugin, which is the only one supported on latest upstream, working also for omap.

digging deeper into this, there is now a libdrm-omap1in the archive, i suspect that will need someone to write a proper omap drm handler for plymouth (and also link plymouth agaist the omap stuff of libdrm) additionally libdrm-omap1 as well as the new drm capable xserver-xorg- video-omap need to go onto the panda images -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018907 Title: plymouth in quantal on arm does only boot with black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1018907/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

if plymouth will fall back to the dumb scanout buffer ioctl, it should work.. I'd have to look at plymouth src code to see if this is actually how it does work.
