Any ideas what is drawing this animation? I supposed it could be osso-systemui-splashscreen (closed source package), I just removed it, and I didn't notice anything changed. Some entries from its changelog: * Fixes: NB#140533 Nokia logo should come instantly * Fixes: NB#135992 Shutdown tone is played twice * Fixes: NB#127087 Shutdown splashscreen not drawn to the screen during shutdown -- Then there are open source package hildon-welcome which plays starting video (handshake as default). I removed hildon-welcome and then it skips video, but dot animation is still there.
