Package: plymouth Version: 0.8.8-6+deb8u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have a fresly installed Debian Testing. I have installed plymouth (as it is described on https://wiki.debian.org/plymouth). During boot, no text is displayed. Instead small white rectangles are drawn instead of characters. This occurs, depending on the theme, for instance during querying of a password for an encrypted partition. I have tried several schemes (fade-in, spinfinity, details, script...). After changing the theme with plymouth-set-default-theme, i have rebuilt the the initrd with update-initramfs. It seems that http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=707765 describes my problem quite accurately. But for me the problem is not resolved. I have made pictures of the bug: http://m.fuglos.org/plymouth1.jpg http://m.fuglos.org/plymouth2.jpg Thanks for your help, mel -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.10-7.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages plymouth depends on: ii initramfs-tools 0.113 ii libc6 2.17-92 ii multiarch-support 2.17-92 plymouth recommends no packages.
