Hello Prem,

Thank you for reaching out with your question. It sounds like you’ve made great progress with the boot-up logo on your Verdin iMX8MP using Plymouth. Let’s see how we can address the issue with the shutdown logo.

  1. Verify Plymouth Configuration: Double-check that the path to your shutdown image in spinner.plymouth is correct:

    [shutdown]
    ImageFile=/usr/share/plymouth/themes/spinner/shutdownlogo.png
    

    Ensure that shutdownlogo.png is indeed located at this path and is accessible.

  2. Set the Correct Theme: Confirm that the Plymouth theme is set to spinner or the theme where you’ve configured the shutdown image. Use the following command to set and rebuild the theme:

    plymouth-set-default-theme -R spinner
    

    The -R option rebuilds the initramfs with the new theme.

  3. Check Plymouth Service: Make sure the Plymouth service is active during shutdown. Check its status with:

    systemctl status plymouth-quit.service
    

    If it’s not active, enable it using:

    systemctl enable plymouth-quit.service
    
  4. Display Configuration: Since you’re using a native LVDS display, verify that the display settings remain correct during shutdown. Sometimes, settings can change, affecting the logo’s visibility.

  5. Review Logs: Look into system logs for any errors related to Plymouth or display settings during shutdown. This can provide insights into any underlying issues.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue with the shutdown logo. If you continue to experience difficulties, reviewing the Plymouth documentation might offer additional insights.

I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

Best regards,
