AGP module not loaded before graphics module when using plymouth hook

I was getting a "[drm:radeon_agp_init [radeon]] *ERROR* unable to acquire AGP: -19" error at boot, after "starting version 219" and before plymouth took over the screen when following the instructions. E.g. hooks="base udev plymouth ...", despite having modules="via_agp radeon ...".

Not sure if it's a problem with the current plymouth hook but I removed it from mkinitcpio.conf, rebuilt initramfs and the error goes away -and- I still have plymouth on boot. --Kit (talk) 21:13, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

The cryptdevice kernel parameter does work?

The wiki currently states that:

Warning:

• Using PARTUUID or PARTLABEL in cryptdevice= parameter does not work with plymouth-encrypt hook.

However, my encrypted system boots with:

   options	"cryptdevice=UUID=deadbeef-dead-beef-dead-deadbeefbeef lvm root=/dev/mapper/foobar rw add_efi_memmap quiet loglevel=3 rd.udev.log_priority=3 vt.global_cursor_default=0 splash acpi_osi=""!Windows 2015"" initrd=\EFI\arch\intel-ucode.img initrd=\EFI\arch\initramfs-linux.img"

This implies that it does work

No, UUID is not the same thing as PARTUUID. See Persistent block device naming. -- Lahwaacz (talk) 20:52, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Fedora had made some work on FilckerFreeBoot. Here are some usable url:

• Flicker Free Boot FAQ
• Linux5.8
• Linux4.18

Let's we bring this to ArchLinux :)

Now I can say, the command The kernel command line is too long, "quiet splash" just be needed for me.

And far, the command "video=efifb:nobgrt" can be used to hidden vendor logo Dragonwater (talk) 13:34, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

ShowDelay: "The default is 5 seconds"

The default for me (plymouth-git^AUR):

/etc/plymouth/plymouthd.conf

# Set your plymouth configuration here.
[Daemon]
Theme=spinner
ShowDelay=0
DeviceTimeout=8

Can someone else confirm this? Glibg10b (talk) 17:21, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
