Dear Maintainer,

I wanted to use plymouth, installed it through aptitude on Jessy - doesn't work.

I am using proprietary NVidia drivers, so I applied most common solutions from web. Debian wiki describes use with Nouveau, but thanks to it I changed some GRUB config. Didn't work. Then I tried this - http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=60019 - no effect, only text. Then I tried startupmanager that somewhat gave some effect - there was some rectangles during startup, but I couldn't change anything. After that I noticed that I had't installed v86d (uvesafb), so I did and updated both GRUB and initramfs. So I had uvesafb error telling me it couldn't allocate memory and second error telling me plymouth was disconnected from boot status daemon. I fixed the first one by simply adding "video=efifb:off" in grub (it was occupying memory that uvesafb wanted). Now I have 1 error and I completely don't know what to do. I have some plymouth-styled messages on shutdown, but nothing more despite the error. Even plymouth theme preview doesn't work - it shows black screen but it is not being
 refreshed, so I just need to change something in that place on the screen.

I made some more research and I think that video=efifb:off is not
enough, I would have to decompile it from kernel (and change setting).
Currently I have no space for needed packages and new kernel (I want to
leave default kernel intact). So I guess no graphical plymouth for me,
or just as long as I use NVidia proprietary (currently Nouveau is very
buggy and does not offer full OpenGL experience with GeForce Go 7300).
