Problem found: openSuSE plymouth-0.9.4+git20190304.ed9f201-lp152.4.4.x86_64 has a bad custom patch (Patch4) trying to change frame buffer management in Plymouth if it detect bochs driver by disabling DRM device.

Building the package without the patch makes things work as expected.

I'll report to openSuSE.

Olivier.
