Description-en: boot animation, logger and I/O multiplexer - themes
Plymouth provides a boot-time I/O multiplexing framework - the most obvious
use for which is to provide an attractive graphical animation in place of
the text messages that normally get shown during boot. (The messages are
instead redirected to a logfile for later viewing.) However, in event-driven
boot systems Plymouth can also usefully handle user interaction such as
password prompts for encrypted file systems.
.
This package provides the following themes:
.
* fade-in: features a centered logo that fades in and out while stars twinkle
around the logo during system boot up.
* glow: features a pie chart as progress indicator.
* script: features a simple base theme.
* solar: features a blue flamed sun with animated solar flares.
* spinfinity: features a centered logo and animated spinner that spins in the
shape of an infinity sign.
* spinner: features a simple theme with a small spinner on a dark background.
