21.04: Encryption prompt off center

[leviport]

I upgraded my personal desktop over the weekend, and this started happening every time I boot. I'm suspecting it's related to my monitor layout. The left display is a 2560x1440p 144Hz display connected over DisplayPort, and the right display is a 1920x1080 in portrait mode connected over HDMI. My GPU is an AMD RX Vega64.

I didn't do any further testing since there were video games that needed playing, but I'll test different display configurations soon.

Strange it doesn't seem to line up on either monitor. And pre-X11 it shouldn't know the right one is rotated yet.

Also happens on galp5 and the lemp9. Possibly due to the different native display resolutions of the screens?

happening to me after updating to 21.04 from 20.10.

doesn't show up at all via my laptop screen, but us off-center via my external monitors.

i have to press esc twice to see it centered again.

weird, i did a update-initramfs -c -k all and got an error saying cryptsetup: WARNING: cryptdata: ignoring unknown option 'nofail'

so i looked at my crypttab file and found nofail in it. i ended up removing it and not i don't have issues with the encryption prompt not showing up.

[ianhundere]

just to chime in again, this is still happening on my external monitor as per @leviport

I have the same problem, I've also put it here Reddit

So right now we have also figured out that if I remove my additional two screens, and just use my laptop screen I do not have the issue. What makes it weird is that is started since my upgrade to 21.04.

Any update ?

So can somebody please share how I can run this in some kind of development / testing mode ?
I would like to contribute because this issue has been open since May.

After you clone the repository and make any changes you want to test, you can install the build dependencies with sudo apt build-dep pop-plymouth-theme, then build the package with dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc -us.

@jacobgkau Thank you very much, just for clarity, after I build the package I can install it, is there an easy way / command to revert to the official / current ?

You would install the package with sudo dpkg -i ./package.deb and revert to current with sudo apt upgrade.
