Plymouth themes aren't appearing












0















I use Ubuntu 16.10. Even though I choose a plymouth theme, still some codes and messages (with green "OK" in every message) are appearing while booting. I updated plymouth theme via sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth then sudo update-initramfs -u.
I use Intel graphic driver

          I spent 2 days research on plymouth and coding, real fun by the way, try this.



          Check your possible resolutions with sudo hwinfo --framebuffer and
          make following entries in sudo nano /etc/default/grub.



          grub editing



          GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"


          GRUB_GFXMODE="1920x1080x32"
          GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX="keep"
          GRUB_VIDEO_BACKEND="vbe"


          If the entries are done, run:



          sudo update-grub


          Test splash with this command:



          sudo plymouthd --debug  ; sudo plymouth --show-splash ; for ((I=0;I<10;I++)); do sleep 1 ; sudo plymouth --update=event$I ; done ; sudo plymouth --quit


          If you get some splash even just Ubuntu with 4 dumb dots Plymouth is working.



          Please also check the entries in your splash theme script file in this example it is ubuntu-sunrise theme, you can use following command with your path to the script file



          sudo nano /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-sunrise/ubuntu-sunrise.script


          There must be 2 entries like this:



          mytheme.script



          Insert the correct paths,



          ImageDir=/usr/share/plymouth/themes/yourtheme

          ScriptFile=/usr/share/plymouth/themes/yourtheme/yourtheme.script


          Finally once more



          sudo update-initramfs -u


          Reboot.

            Edit /etc/default/grub: you need line 9 to read:



            GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"


            Then run:



            sudo update-grub
            sudo update-initramfs -u


            NOTE: the last step is required when ever you change the plymouth theme.
