gensplash-avoid-chvt.patch
we could easily avoid chvt and use the running splash daemon to switch to
verbose mode which actually is only a change to vt 1.

gensplash-avoid-tail.patch
avoid using tail in splash-functions.sh. Same result could be achieved with
builtin bash functions ;)
Created attachment 53767 [details, diff]
simple patch to avoid use of tail in splash-functions.sh
This is an alternate method to avoid tail (and btw head) in splash-functions,
as the file has only 2 lines, we could as well check the whole file.
The new version of splashutils (1.1.9.2) should fix these problems. If it doesn't, please comment/reopen. Everything works except trying to F2 into verbose mode. I press F2 and nothing happens. At the very end before I'm presented with the login, the screen turns black except for the progress bar, then everything shows up again normally. Do you have CONFIG_EVDEV set to 'y' in your kernel config? If you don't, it just won't work (I know, it's a bug, switching from silent to verbose should work anyway). You mean CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV? It isn't set in my kernel. Where can I find it in menuconfig? Nevermind, I found it in Device Drivers -> Input device support -> Event Interface OK I enabled support for that, and it still won't goto verbose mode when I hit F2 |
