Created attachment 118872 Contains plymouth debug logs
I am trying to install plymouth version 0.9.0-9 on the virtual box. Underlying OS is debian jessie. The beautiful splash screen that used to come with plymouth version 0.8.5 for debian wheezy on virtual box does not come up any more.
I am aware of the fact that virtual box does not support KMS drivers so eventually plymouth falls back to framebuffer to display splash.
the plymouth debug logs suggest that the udev identifies the framebuffer but cannot initialize it as a result a non-graphical seat is created.
logs are attached.
