Looking For New BL Plymouth Theme

@vinzv has made his bunsenlabs plymouth theme private.  So I can't install it anymore.

It comes up as a public account for me. Maybe a temporary glitch while he was updating the git?

Wow, 8 year old reference...

Re: Looking For New BL Plymouth Theme

Yes public account, but the code was last updated 8 years ago.  Does it still work? Never used Plymouth so I am unsure of how it has developed.

I don't know about the BL theme, but Hamara (Plymouth animation) is working beautifully on trixie via the old instructions I linked above. Note: the first step about initramfs-fs/modules, ignore that.

@markw

Archived and read only, so no more commits/updates. Still looks to be public though so you should be able to clone the repo and follow the installation instructions.

8 years since last commit, don't be surprised if it no longer works.

Comes up public to me as well. it's good to see that it still works (with a tweak to the setup steps) on trixie as @hhh mentioned despite being relatively old.

Here's what I'm getting

mark@bunsenlabs:~$ cd /usr/share/plymouth/themes/
mark@bunsenlabs:/usr/share/plymouth/themes$ sudo git clone https://github.com/vinzv/bunsen-plymouth-one.git bunsenlabs

Re: Looking For New BL Plymouth Theme

His instructions appear to be obsolete now that github has gone the token route; the repo has a different address.

I think you can still install it manually. In the upper right is the green "code" button (see screenshot)

Click on the code button and copy that link. Then use:

git clone https://github.com/vinzv/bunsen-plymouth.git bunsenlabs

in a directory you have read-write permissions.

Once you have the repo cloned you can manually install is and set it up as the new Plymouth theme. The other instructions to update-alternatives will hopefully work for you.

You may be able to

sudo git clone https://github.com/vinzv/bunsen-plymouth.git bunsenlabs

right into the /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ but I have never used sudo when cloning a repo so I can't vouch for that working.
