How to install Plymouth [SOLVED]
Hello community,
I managed to get my LMDE pretty ready for my production purposes, it is stable, functional and beautiful. The problem is I couldn`t find a way to make Plymouth work. I installed it using the repos, than i followed instructions to set the default theme. But nothing worked. Funny is that, some months ago I was using a Mint Debian 64bits using the Vincent tutorial on the community website and back then I managed to get plymouth working... But for this original installation of LMDE i couldn`t.
Some ideas?

Re: How to install Plymouth
Just to double check: you've already installed the "plymouth-themes-all" package, right?

Hello Vincent,

Should be something like this:luis.nando wrote:GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"
Code: Select all
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
Code: Select all
sudo update-grub
Re: How to install Plymouth
Well...I'm out of ideas at the moment. Strange...any LMDE users with Plymouth installed want to chime in?
Re: How to install Plymouth [SOLVED]
After I reinstalled the package plymouth started working... thanks.
Re: How to install Plymouth [SOLVED]
Even more strange...oh well, if it's working now, I guess everything's fine.
