That's Plymouth I think, so for now won't fix.

Tumbeliina and Ane were working on that last week, I think it should be
better now. Anne had committed the new images for the left background. The
splash is still not ready yet, waiting for the new icon.

Where does it move around to/from?
I don't think that having the icon in a different place from last version's
background is a problem.
As for different from background to background, I thought that we had
decided to put it in the bottom right corner, a little up so it won't
interfere with the KDE bar. We can decide exactly how many pixels offset
from the right of the image and from the bottom and use that for all
backgrounds. No?
