Description Luc Menut 2011-11-30 23:07:44 CET 
Description of problem:
Plymouth is not stopped when kdm is used; X starts on vt8 and plymouth still runs on vt7 (and plymouthd eats CPU).
This happens since initscripts 9.34; previously plymouth was stopped by /etc/X11/prefdm.
In recent initscripts, Fedora removed the "plymouth quit" for kdm because they patched kdm to stop plymouth.
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=kdebase-workspace.git;a=blob;f=kdebase-workspace-4.4.92-kdm_plymouth081.patch;h=2c49ccd48098717885a09c1829997b6728a162ce;hb=HEAD
but this patch was not accepted upstream for now, kde bug report:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206089

so, we can either add "plymouth_quit=yes" for kdm in prefdm, or patch our kdm like fedora.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-9.34-2.mga2.src.rpm
kdebase4-workspace-4.7.3-5.mga2.src.rpm
