Issues with plymouth.prefer-fbcon
I experience the following problems when the plymouth.prefer-fbcon
option is specified:
- There is no way to switch back and forth between the splash screen and the console view. After switching from the splash screen to the console view by pressing the Esc key, I cannot switch back to the splash screen, even if I press the Esc key multiple times.
- When I switch to the console view, the actual characters are shown instead of asterisks when I type password to unlock an encrypted device using systemd.
Tested with plymouth 24.004.60 and systemd 255.2 on Arch Linux.
