Hello I rolled from testing today into 8.4, I ran Code: Pacman -Syu all the packages installed properly. I have never used boot splash because I prefer to see the messages. Unfortunately I now for some reason have the boot splash when I log in or log out. I went to Linhes Advanced and the box for boot splash was not checked. So I checked the button and then rebooted but no change. Next I unchecked the button and the rebooted and still no change. Can't seem to get rid of it. Any ideas...

I can't think of anything changed in the R8.4 cycle that would have affected the boot splash. How long ago had you updated from testing?

The grub might have something to do with it but rechecking the options should have fixed it. Try running sudo plymouth_config.py manually.

You can see the messages when booting by pressing F1.

I am thinking all that needs be done is check the box in the menu and then manually recreate the grub config. I am not sure why it isn't doing it right now. Code: sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I checked the button and then ran Code: sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg Generating grub configuration file ... Found LinHES runit: Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-linux Found initrd image: /boot/initramfs-linux.img Found fallback initramfs image: /boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+/memtest.bin done
Rebooted, then unchecked the button and rebooted The buttton is still broken...

After unchecking the button you need to run grub-mkconfig again to write the new config to /boot.
I just pushed some updates that fix this so just pacman -Syu

Running Code: Pacman -Syu solved the issue.
