boot2qt: qtlauncher failed with Could not find DRM device! when using plymouth splash

Marek Belisko

Hello,

I'm trying to add plymouth splash screen to boot2qt demo application. So added plymouth to final image. Issue is that I cannot see splash (no idea why yet) but also qtlauncher.service fails to start with:
Could not find DRM device!

It looks like some dependency issue with systemd but I've added to qtlauncher.service :
After=systemd-user-sessions.service plymouth-quit-wait.service plymouth-quit.service

so it should start after plymouth is finished. I have an suspicion that qtlauncher is started before and then cannot connect to display as it's used by plymouth. Any ideas how to improve that? Thanks,

Hi,

Boot2Qt being a commercial product, you likely have a corresponding license. You should contact support regarding your problem.

If you're using Yocto Project, why not use psplash? It's more simpler and light than plymouth.

And Boot2Qt uses Yocto Project.

Well I can use some other splash method, but I have done a lot of debugging with plymouth so would like to finish with this one instead of jumping to something completely new :)

@Marek-Belisko did you ever get plymouth working as I would like to do the same?
