Short answer: Yes

Here's the corresponding entry in my grub.conf:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.29.3-140.fc11.x86_64 ro
root=/dev/mapper/vg_chrislaptop-lv_root rhgb quiet

If I were to remove "rhgb quiet", the startup messages should be
displayed. I wouldn't see the text mode Plymouth startup (the light
blue / dark blue / white status line at the bottom of the screen).

Since I do see the text mode plugin, I'm assuming Plymouth no longer
likes something about my Intel display.

Perhaps it's time to Bugzilla...

Cheers,

Chris

PS: And, yes, Chris (OK - Christopher) is my real name. It's more than
apparently such as alleged in another thread... :)
