Description Sascha Schroeder 2013-05-15 21:48:17 CEST
Description of problem:

The KDE icons in boot splash, like when the Wifi or hard drive is loading, are missing in Mageia 3 RC.

It did work when I installed the RC freshly but somehow disappeared with later updates.

The dots above the "M" are still there and indicate that your system is loading.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Mageia 3 RC and choose KDE as desktop environment. You will notice that the icons are there in the boot splash
2. do some updates
3. reboot


Reproducible:

Luc, were those icons removed on purpose?

I think Atelier decided to do so for aesthetic reasons

Adding Donald too

Donald removed them in ksplash theme
http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft?view=revision&revision=7975

I removed them from the package, as they weren't used anymore

"Aesthetic reasons"........

Setting against cauldron for MGA4. This should have wider discussion

As we appear to have accepted their loss, and no one is screaming to have them back I'm closing this.
