#Fedora is currently discussing a proposal to replace the #kernel console #fbcon with the userspace console #kmscon in its next version, "to provide an enhanced and more secure console.
The long term goal is also to deprecate fbcon/fbdev emulation in the kernel, and this is the first step in this direction.""

SUSE has been working on an in-kernel boot splash screen for Linux.
The patches in their initial form for this new kernel "bootsplash" yet still shows a blank screen but can be adapted to a show a distribution's logo, Tux, or the like.
This suggestion comes from developer Max Staudt.
