I like it. It's short and sweet and you know that something is happening. Lately, though, it never makes it all the way to the end before the desktop arrives. I'm always left wondering if something didn't get loaded :-( > In older versions of Fedora/KDE various icons used to appear in order, > showing what was happening at that moment during the re- boot. I always hated those icons :-( I found them tired and not indicative of what was going on at that particular point in time—and the final one wasn't even a part of the set: it was an oversized KDE icon. I think they were holdovers from the 1990s. I'll take that slick and matter-of-fact bar and the pretty background image any day. And with the background images to all components—grub (mine is not graphical), gdm/sddm and the desktop all the same, the entire system looks mature, modern, polished and professional. I think the art or graphic sig deserves credit for having created a successful unified look. _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
