Plymouth Lands Its Tighter Integration With UEFI Flicker-Free Boot Experience

[Britoid]

These features to improve the boot process are nice, no flickering, no unnecessary mode sets and no crippled output should be the standard. But my biggest issue is that Uefi is slow as hell, my Asus mainboard needs 15 seconds, this is more that 50% of the boot time :-(

You might have certain hardware that the UEFI is taking long to bring up, do you have CSM enabled?

CSM is disabled already. Not sure if I have any other special hardware besides a NVME drive (no SSD/HDD) and my RX480. So far I can only assume it is the fault of the Asus Uefi.

Can someone esplain to me what "flickering" means? Like, literal rapid oscillation between image and blackness? I've never had that. Is it the slower, temporary black outs? I have those.

Also, I appreciate the nod to the Outpost 2 faction.
