Plymouth in F11

Hi,

I have F11 KDE, I wanted to experience Plymouth boot but none of the sites I googled didn't help.
I will refer to one: http://www.my-guides.net/en/content/view/161/26/2/13/

I did the exact and still after login i see standard Fedora Leonid bootup.

I have Toshiba Tecra A8 laptop, resolution 1280x800 with Intel 945GM integrated graphics.
I also tried to place vga=865 but I got error that it is not supported after grub.

Is there any help for me?

Edit> This screen I was getting until I set default theme to solar, spinifity... and after setting ones I mentioned screen is just black..

Here is how I got it to work:
First as root, edit your /boot/grub/grub.conf

and put a vga=ask at the end of the kernel that you are using

Example...
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 ro root=UUID=a61c8338-e373-4389-ae00-32942185f7c2 rhgb quiet vga=ask

When you boot, it should now take you to a menu that will allow you to select the resolution for plymouth.

Working!

Hi,
Just to tell that now it's working, all I did was to remove "vga=xxx" from the line and now it works.
SO if any1 has same problem, just remove |vga=xxx" and it will work!

Best regards!
