> You could detect both parameters to avoid that corner case. Sure one can check for "splash nomodeset" to avoid the confusion in most cases, but that wouldn't fix it for "splash $DRIVER.modeset=0" or less common architectures which might have no primary framebuffer. I guess we can tell people who are debugging to remove "splash", and if such a less common architecture did exist then report a new kernel bug that it has no primary framebuffer.
Still, I'll keep searching for solutions that don't rely on the primary framebuffer trick. P.S. The patch in comment #55, and anything that follows it, has an unexpected benefit that there is never an onscreen console created if you never VT switched. And so bug 1870041 is also solved (well enough). -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be. Basically, the flow used to be in 20.04: GRUB > Splash screen > Login prompt Currently in 22.04: GRUB > Splash screen > Messages (in the attached file) > Splash screen again for a sec > Login prompt All of those messages already existed in 20.04, the difference is that they were not appearing during boot. I was able to get rid of the "usb" related messages by just adding "loglevel=0" in GRUB. Currently is "quiet loglevel=0 splash". Regarding the fsck related message, I can get rid of them by adding "fsck.mode=skip". However, I do not want to just disable fsck or set the loglevel to 0. This is not a sustainable solution. Something definitely changed here. These messages are not of enough relevance to be shown at boot by default, and they should remain hidden like they were in Focal. Obviously a minor issue, but important to the whole look and feel of the OS for desktop.
