Not to worry, Randall... I've been around Linux for a while now, and I
couldn't find anything in the release notes to answer your question either.
Perhaps Simon didn't understand your question and provided an answer to
"how do I set up my computer to use the graphical boot" instead of "how do
I always show details in the graphical boot".
Ah, sorry, I misunderstood. I have never tested this solution, but this is how I would do it: in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, at line 92 is where rhgb is started. You only need to add a line:
rhgb-client --details=yes
after rhgb is started. Maybe you will have to add a
sleep N
where N is replaced by the appropriate number of seconds that you must wait for the X server to start. So do something like that:
/usr/bin/rhgb sleep 5 /usr/bin/rhgb-client --details=yes
for example. Good luck!
