"Plymouth is a freedesktop.org project to create a flicker free 
graphical bootup system designed and developed by Red Hat and included 
in Fedora 10. Red Hat has been working on Xorg drivers and within the 
Linux kernel to improve and enhance the kernel mode support needed for 
Plymouth. Fedora 10 included support for many ATI cards and this is 
being developed further in Fedora 11 to cover Intel and Nvidia cards as 
well. Plymouth supports a flexible and powerful plug-in system which can 
be used to create Plymouth themes. Fedora includes several of them 
including a simple progress bar and the solar plugin. Now additional 
work is being done to improve many things and this will land up in 
Fedora 11 as well."
