and even there I cannot find any informations about "advantages of Plymouth". The only nice thing (which I found there) is logging of boot process.
But I read there "For systems that don't have DRM mode settings drivers, plymouth falls back to text mode.".
What does it means? "text" mode is simply theme with text mode (default one I think) or it's real text mode which doesn't prevents X from start? I am asking because I don't understand why and how X cannot start because of plymouth. Maybe without using DRM plymouth can be less problematic?
Where I can read about "I/O multiplexer" functionality?
