Hi all, I'm using plymouth in my boot process, however plymouth-0.9.0 fail to show splash theme (I'm using solar). Reverting to 0.8.8-r5 makes things work again.
(poweroff screen never worked, but this is another issue :) )
I'm using systemd-215-r1, linux (vanilla) 3.15.6 sys-kernel/genkernel-next-58

COnfiguration is done thru genkernel.conf:

# Installs, or not, plymouth into the initramfs. If "splash" will be
# passed at boot, plymouth will be activated.
PLYMOUTH="yes"

# Embeds the given plymouth theme into the initramfs.
PLYMOUTH_THEME="solar"



boot params:
root=/dev/mapper/vg0-root ro acpi_osi="!Windows 2012" i915.modeset=1 dolvm init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd quiet splash 


Reproducible: Always
