[14:30] <Keybuk> ion: make the thing you suggest part of plymouth
[14:31] <ion> I might. :-P
[14:31] <Keybuk> because we're going to go for that in lynx I think
[14:31] <ion> That is, if i ever get around to implementing something like that, it definitely should be part of plymouth.
[14:31] <Keybuk> I hate usplash too much
[14:31] <Keybuk> :p
[14:32] <ion> If the text fallback is clean and pretty, it isn’t even that big a problem that some drivers still don’t support KMS IMHO.
[14:33] <Keybuk> indeed
[14:33] <Keybuk> and it turns out that it hurts boot speed to support non-KMS splash
[14:33] <Keybuk> because you have to sleep in the hope a KMS driver appears
[14:33] <Keybuk> then give up, and start the splash instead
[14:33] <Keybuk> which is, err, about the point you also start X :p
[14:33] <ion> :-)
[14:34] <Keybuk> bbiab
