This video is mainly just to show that Plymouth does indeed work on a Nvidia gfx card, just not that well for now.

Using the nouveau driver that is built into the 2.6.32 Linux kernel certain Nvidia gfx cards can use Plymouth. However its not very pretty right now. This boot is slow and it was faster (about 15 seconds) but I'm glad it slowed down unless you wouldn't see Plymouth at all, it would be black then the desktop.

The main problem I have right now is my monitor goes out during boot (didn't do it in the video but in normally does) because something sets the refresh rate to high and the monitor cant handle it. I'm still trying to figure out how to set the refresh rate during boot but it doesn't matter much.

Any questions, comments, or suggestions then don't hesitate to ask.
