Troubleshooting

• Double check if you've followed the steps mentioned in the ArchWiki to install Plymouth
• It's known that lower screen resolution has scaling issue. For now it works well with 1920 x 1080 displays. I'm working on it.
• Try using installing a grub theme, and see if any graphic driver is causing resolution issues. Related: https://askubuntu.com/questions/362722/how-to-fix-plymouth-splash-screen-in-all-ubuntu-releases/
• Does your grub file contains this line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"?
• If nothing works create an issue.
