I got the Plymouth splash showing by: 1. change /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf: MODULES=most -> MODULES=dep 2. update-initramfs -u -k all
Now amdgpu driver is loaded at about 6.0 seconds into the boot. Not sure which it should be in reality, but 'man initramfs.conf' says: - 'most' adds most file system, all ata, sata, scsi and usb driver - 'dep' tries to guess which modules are necessary for the running box and only adds those modules So 'most' would not be enough in this case. Or is there some more generic fix for this? ** Package changed: systemd (Ubuntu) => initramfs-tools (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2076297 Title: Ubuntu Studio 24.04: Plymouth graphical splash screen not working Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Plymouth graphical splash screen is not working at boot up, there is only text splash shown. At shutddwn graphical splash is shown. Kernel: 6.8.0-38-lowlatency Based on dmesg, the 'amdgpu' driver is loaded as late as 10..16 seconds after the boot has started, which seems to be too late for Plymouth to show the graphical splash. Not sure if "systemd modprobe drm" is responsible for getting amdgpu loaded eventually, but also that is starting quite late in the process. Comparing amdgpu load time to for example on openSUSE Tumbleweed on the same PC, it takes 4..5 seconds, so 6..11 seconds less than on Ubuntu!
