how can i uninstall Plymouth, or replace it with Usplash?

[Paulo Silva]

hi!

maybe because Plymouth (Ubuntu 10.04 upgrade installed it, but i have
it disabled from StartupManager, i think), fsck is not providing that
so useful progressbar of filesystems checking.

i have some questions about it:

can i have this fsck in text mode providing a filesystem check
progress bar back from a configuration file?

and if not, is Plymouth conflicting somehow with fsck?

and if it is, how can we uninstall Plymouth? (Synaptic is saying every
packages else, even Gnome, will be uninstalled as well, when i only
want to uninstall Plymouth)

thanks and cheers,
Paulo
