            Bug ID: 367818
           Summary: Password textfield is not visible when using dm-crypt
           Product: Breeze
           Version: 5.7.3
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Plymouth
          Assignee: plasma-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: rapiteanu.catalin at gmail.com

The password textfield is not displayed when the hard disk is encrypted.

Reproducible steps:
- Have the latest plymouth git version installed.
- Use systemd-boot to start the system.
- Have the kernel command line properly set to display the splash screen
(splash).
- Use the correct mkinit config to start the splash (HOOKS= ... plymouth ...
plymouth-encrypt ... )
- Boot up the system.

Expected behaviour:
- At boot a password input textfield should appear on the screen on top of the
blue background. If the password was correctly set, the KDE splash should then
appear and the booting should start.

Observed behaviour:
- At boot only a static blue background appears on the screen. The key input
events are correctly sent, so if you insert the correct password, the system
will boot, but the static background will not change through the whole boot
sequence.

Observation:
- Switch from the plymouth (blue static background) to the console and
correctly insert the password. After the system has begin to start, switch back
to the plymouth and the KDE logo should correctly displayed.
